User blog:The JoTS/Rooster Teeth wikis footer program

Hello!

I am an administrator at the newly founded Camp Camp wikia, and I would like to discuss a proposal I recently made concerning the creation of a simplistic Rooster Teeth wikis affiliation program– a footer.

If you are not aware: an affiliate footer basically is a template that would include links to all of its member wikis and essentially allow the wikis to link to one another. For an example of such a footer, here is the YouTube footer hosted by the YouTube wiki.


UPDATE: We ask that participating members (as of July 2, 2016) integrate the footer in their main page by July 8th, 2016. This is merely a guideline for adoption of the footer.

A WIP version of this footer has been created on Community Central (see below). Wikis that are currently included are for testing purposes, and may not indicate consent.

Why?[edit | edit source]

At the moment, it appears that many of these wikis have a "loose" or "implied" affiliation with one another– wikis may link to one another within articles, but may not be officially affiliated. This program is a way to "unify" the communities and the large overlap in the communities' interests and wiki content (...I bet like half of our wikis have a "Barbara Dunkleman" page).

Also, it does help out the smaller wikis. Like mine.

Participating wikis[edit | edit source]

The program currently has the support of these wikis (in order of confirmed consent):
(Wikis marked with * (asterisk) have adopted the footer in their main page.)

These wikis have been contacted, but have yet to respond:

  • No more invitations have been sent out as of July 25, 2016.

These wikis have declined membership:
