Blog:The Website Wiki Closures

Edit; following a promotion this now is a staff blog regarding this issue.

Allow me to offer the full situation with the Website Wikis for reference (Rotten Websites Wiki and Fresh Websites Wiki).

An administrator closed the wikis, apparently behind everyone's backs. All other admins were demoted (including Mario and DarkMatterMan, co-leader and leader respectively) and nobody was informed of this. Obviously with this out of nowhere, people were confused. Some tried to justify it initially, but when the details came out, it quickly became opposition. As a result the following things have happened.
 * DuchessTheSponge is no longer a staff member on Qualitipedia, anywhere. They are not blocked, but will not become staff again.
 * The wikis have been brought to Miraheze stewards on the mh:meta:Stewards' noticeboard so they can review and restore the wikis to the rest of QP staff.

If the community feels these wikis are too damaged or toxic to be repaired, this can be discussed and voted on locally by active contributors. But what won't happen is their official closure without anybody's input, let alone an idea of how many people support or oppose it.

Currently the website wikis should be reopened somewhere between today and tomorrow.
