WikiTide Meta talk:Requests for permissions

Regarding all RfPs at the moment
I see no time has been wasted requesting Wiki Creator in particular, but my gist will carry regardless of the permissions request. In short: too early. The farm does not even have a live ToS, a live Privacy Policy, or a completed Content Policy from which to do wiki creation - the last one being a pivotal point of change in the eyes of this farm. The issue is not that wiki creations are bottlenecked. It's that the very basics have not been established. Jamming wikis down the platform's throat in this stage would not be responsible for the platform to allow, and quite frankly I find it irresponsible for wiki operators to jump ship immediately when Miraheze is still running and has just as many people actively attempting to correct its course. This platform is in its infancy and Miraheze is in twilight, but not a guaranteed one. With all this in mind I would advise any wiki creator aspirant to set down the hat and if they really want to contribute to this platform, then to contribute to the underlying setup of this farm so it is something more stable for a wiki operator to believe in. Get familiar with the changes it wants to make. Help it have policies from which your roles would be built (notice all these requests are absent of any discussed/ratified policy behind them). This was never meant to be a 1:1 mirror of Miraheze and if it becomes so given its configuration, it has failed already. Blindly creating wikis as fast as possible is a great way to introduce errors, which to have an extent have happened already (tali got a private wiki but then, no more private wikis). I will not go as far as to formally oppose RfPs because of this but you can consider this a spiritual oppose and an appeal to each requestor's good sense. --Raidarr (talk) 17:25, 17 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I will add given NotAracham's comment at the top of the RfP page (just below the header box) that all current RfPs are invalid besides this for what I assume is mostly the same logic as above. --Raidarr (talk) 17:36, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 * This is accurate. Thanks all for the exciting start, but we need to get things organized first and foremost before we open up RfPs. --NotAracham (talk) 18:31, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
