UDWiki:Operation Prune

Rationale

Any gardener, or in my case Wikipedia, will tell you that sometimes in order to help a plant grow you need to cut big chunks off. In this analogy the wiki is a plant. It's overgrown with weeds and needs pruned. In the case of the UDWiki we have been going for nearly seven years, and in that time a metric fuckton of junk has accumulated. Not only is it unneeded, it's offputting to newbies looking for information and may actually be hampering the wiki's growth.

Step 1 - Kill "Current Status"

Pick a random location page and the chances it will have a current status or history section which is either several years out of date or empty. Let's face it, there are 10000 locations in Malton, we have a fairly small group of wiki editors, these are never going to be consistently kept up to date and at the moment they simply serve to make the wiki look neglected. Time for them to go. Gordon 16:44, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Nah, I say leave it as is. The Urban Dead community in general has been dying for a long time, partially due to Kevan's lack of interest and/or effort put into the game in the later years. Editing the thousands of pages just to attract new players for a dying game is futile. --TheBardofOld 22:09, 3 April 2012 (BST)
