Hi,

I understand the importance of quality, especially in a place with a history like ourselves, and to be fair, I probably would've voted for these updates a few years back, but in the mindset I have of this place today, these revisions aren't the solution. We really shouldn't be adding more bureaucratic barriers to a small community like ours that is already struggling to gain new, regular users.

These proposals are not only unnecessary but rank with blatant distrust in the community's ability to make content that is pleasing to read and look at. It also severely neglects the creative expression that makes our pages here unique, not "good" necessarily, but unique.

Furthermore, and this is my own gut feeling, standardizing the content here makes us feel less like a wiki and more like a catalog, as though we're just jotting down descriptions and other arbitrary bits of metadata to be fed to a computer and not a person.
