Board Thread:Wiki Discussion/@comment-4975464-20131226172330

We have all never been so united as a community, in the attempts to better our activity to the struggles of trying to sustain balance in our wiki as a whole. Though these attempts have all succeeded in their own way, no solid plan has been forged to rid us of the entirety of our hardships, and though one such plan may not exist, then allow this one to rid us of one major trouble: our inactivity.

As the name of this thread states, in order to rid us of our activity issues (or at least reduce them), we must gather users to add to our community. Considering they were once part of our community, it would only make sense to get new users on our wiki by bringing back the members of the Referata community.

In order to convince the users of Referata to rejoin our wiki, I have put together a form (yes, Google Docs; get used to it) to convince them to join their mother wiki. The form includes some "Terms of Annexation", which include offerings from our wiki and explain the rights of the Referata community.

Now, to convince my wiki to allow the Referata community back, I have prepared a separate speech to convince you guys. I know, more reading, but come on. What do you expect from me? Just remember, guys. Though this plan may seen rash and kind of scary for the fate of our wiki ultimately, just keep in mind that the Annexation terms explain what they can and can not do, and if that does not work, we're all united, right? We'll get them under control Wikia-style.

So again, such actions may seem hasty, yet with the slowing of the user newcoming and its correlating activity, it is with hasty measures that we must take to ensure the future of our prosperous wiki and broad community.

Though both us and Referata must make sacrifices to reunite as one again, we must keep in mind that the path may seem long and even oblique, yet we can all learn to get along with one another and prosper as one community, one wiki, and one unbreakable group of users.

So I ask any user who has ever edited or been apart of the Referata community to please convince them with not only the form and the prepared speech, but with your soft-spoken words and open arms, and I'm sure that we can all band together and make this wiki a better place not just activity-wise, yet all the way.
