Considering the biased attitude you have displayed in this debate I feel that I shouldn't even waste my time. But I will for the sake that you may actually have some knowledge in past wiki affairs. Short and sweet version; we decided to purge a few things; anything that wasn't strictly Sonic related was deleted; pokemon attacks, naruto attacks, other things that were just copied and pasted from another wiki to here were removed entirely. Pokemon articles were also removed, and by pokemon articles I mean articles about some user's made up Lugia or whatever; things that the majority of the admin staff agreed was pointless and, put it bluntly, an absolute joke.

Four months down the line the "war", I guess you could call it, was relatively over. People left. People stayed. Those who left eventually returned to find that whatever they were whining about was blown more out of proportion than a steroid-bound bodybuilder. Bad side of the thing being that I was personally demonized because no other admin had the knackers to actually put the deletions forward. Someone's got to take the bullet, at the end of the day. Most of the admin staff left because of the overwhelming stress; that was why we had the admin nominations to begin with.

But, with the democracy controversy, in which the Users could vote in admin affairs, the deleted articles were remade and non-sonic articles could be created with the excuse "It's in my sonic fanon." Due to Users being allowed to vote on what they want based on personal gain and not on what the Wiki wants, you have what you have today; A wiki that for some reason needs fixing. That's probably the more important aspects of the jist of Wiki's recent history.
