User blog comment:Jr Mime/New Fandom Wiki Manager for the Sims Wiki/@comment-74.198.131.130-20190518213617

If this is the "something new" that MisterWoodhouse mentioned in this thread, then by golly this is one heck of a sore disappointment for me.

This "Fandom Wiki Manager" position fails to address any of the issues raised by the experienced and long-time editors on that thread, and I can't see how this position could possibly help other than to reinforce the status quo. And while this may be a useful position for smaller wikis that struggle with CSS and templates, this isn't something The Sims Wiki in particular needs. We've gotten along just fine on our own for years now. We want fewer ads, less useless features, an upgraded MediaWiki version, better support and more customizability for more aspects of the wiki. This is something we've been wanting for years, and something Staff has persistently chosen not to honor.

I respect you, Jr Mime, but not this ridiculous position. You're welcome to stay on as an editor, and in fact you should, because it makes zero sense that a "Fandom Wiki Manager" assigned to our wiki wouldn't know what our subject matter was nor edit the wiki at all. However, I honestly do not think this new initiative by Staff helps at all, and in fact to me it is a complete waste of time that doesn't even address any of our issues. Staff isn't listening - haven't been for years - and I don't see that changing. Sorry.
