The wiki has grown spectacularly since it was started. We have some amazing articles written by people who know the game
.
One thing to consider as the wiki grows, is that there are more risks of "collisions of opinion". These happen all the time on forums: there are some flames, and the worse thing that happens is that a thread is closed -- the forum goes on.
On a wiki, however, collisions of opinion can lead to "edit wars" where pages are changed to one version then another again and again. When this happens, the value of the wiki is ruined for everyone.
When considering major changes to an article (such as replacing big chunks of content, drastically changing the layout of a page, disputing someone's interpretation of a fact and so on), it is best to use the article's "Talk Page". This is a tab labelled "Discussion" at the top right of the article. The "Talk Page" can be edited like any other wiki page, and here major changes can be discussed.
And the wiki may be one of the first places newcomers look for information on RO -- so we should put our best foot forward!
