I'm starting this off by hoping I'll say very little but that will probably change by the time I'm done writing this. Also I will do my best to be calm but this situation is stressing me out so much. I just need to say a few things because of how much it's affecting me. (Btw I know the mods haven't decided a plan yet. Please don't act like I said they decided to stop the term removals.)

I don't really care if the mods of the MOGAI wiki only considered fully stopping term removal requests. It is really concerning that they are trying to use Wikipedia standards for their wiki. The MOGAI wiki is not Wikipedia. It will never be. It shouldn't try to be. Wikipedia's audience is literally the entire world. The MOGAI wiki's audience is the MOGAI community and unfortunately, those who are very anti-MOGAI.

It's really worrying that the mods of the MOGAI community are trying to act like they can just decide that coiners may not deserve the right to not want to associate with them. One reason a coiner might not want to interact with the wiki is that their social media will be completely open and easily found by those who seek to harass them for their terms.

You might be thinking "the coiner is still public on Tumblr/Twitter so why is this any different?" Well the difference is that the MOGAI wiki is basically a masterlist of coiners while you have to know what you are searching for when you are on Tumblr/Twitter. Also have you seen the Tumblr (can't speak for Twitter) search system? It's awful to try to find specific terms if you don't search the right tag or keyword. So for example, a coiner who makes an Autigender related gender might be able to post it and get no backlash from people who hate those genders if they don't use a certain tag. But if that gender would be posted on the MOGAI wiki, boom, it's categorized with other autigenders.

I just feel like its very disrespectful to say to a group of people with marginalized identities, "hey there's a chance you might not be able to ask us to remove your social media from a masterlist that people can easily find." Do you know how many coiners make their coiner blog a side blog? Do you see the long DNI lists? We want to be safe. We want to be able to express ourselves hopefully without hate and with respect. I know the internet is open for everyone to see, but hell is it hard to find stuff sometimes. This is coming from a person who image searches random anime pfps to find the sources. The internet is HUGE.

I wrote a lot more than I planned to. I'm somewhat glad I did. I am truly in shock from seeing people in this community, who usually are all about respecting others feelings, think that they have a right to just plaster people's creations and social media's on a masterlist without permission. Yes, I get that you can't look at every coiners blog to check if they want you to post their terms. But you can 100% use other methods to have coiners submit their own terms with a verification process. And if you think it's too hard then maybe you shouldn't be running a wiki page. That last part came across kind of rude but I don't know a better way to word it.

this is the last time i’m going to say anything on the subject but maybe we should just. stop giving random mogai blogs an unhealthy amount of power. his has happened multiple times now with multiple different people and it never ends well.

Kris here. Most likely this will be one of my last posts on Tumblr. I want to formerly announce my exiting the project and of MOGAI in general. Exiting the MOGAI Wiki was something I already intended, and I'm aware now I should've just done it sooner rather than later. I'm not apologizing in this post because this isn't an appropriate place or time, but I'm aware of my faults and will continue therapy to work on them, so I ask people not stress about me and turn their attention to the Wiki. I can't in good conscience leave with only two active mods, so I've reached out to Miraheze for editors. I also made Google forms for moderation apps for the Wiki/Discord, and for my remaining MOGAI projects. We're going to take a few weeks to try to gather moderators.

why the warriors wikia needs some updates: part 1. long bios

this is from Needletail’s bio from Darkest night.

Tree sits alone on a rocky outcrop. The yellow tom spots some movement in the shadows below him, seeing a silver pelt. He wonders if the fur is familiar, then green eyes flash up at him. Needletail climbs the rocks, and stops, while Tree purrs her name. Needletail paces distractedly, her pelt twitching, and Tree is able to tell that she's upset.Needletail pauses and stares at him, sadness in her bold gaze. Tree's yellow fur pricks, then Needletail growls, silver fur swishing in the breeze. He slides around her, his fur smoothing hers. The she-cat stiffens, before she slumps down, seemingly tired. Tree crouches beside her, and realizes how thin she's grown. Following Needletail's gaze to the horizon, he asks what's wrong. She calls herself dumb, and that she trusted the wrong cat. Needletail looks at Tree, locking gazes with her old friend, and asks if he'll help her. Needletail's gaze is glassy, but shadows are deep within her green stare. Tree sits up, looking along her fur, and realizes a faint glow coming from within Needletail. His heart aches with grief, before he asks how she died.Needletail is visible to Violetpaw, as Violetpaw runs towards her. Violetpaw asks why Needletail is out in the middle of the woods, and Needetail lacks an answer, and instead, stares at Violetpaw. After Violetpaw questions if she is dead, she replies that she is in fact dead. The silver she-cat walks away, and disappears.Needletail introduces Violetpaw to Tree, saying she needs to take him to SkyClan claiming that the Clans need him. Needletail states she believes taking Tree to the Clans will allow her to go to StarClan.Needletail appears when Tree shows the dead cats to the medicine cats of the Clans. She talks to Violetshine, saying that thanks to her and Tree, she now walks with her dead Clanmates. She also assures Violetshine that she was never angry at Violetshine.Needletail's eyes burns for another moment. As the spirit cats start to disappear, Needletail gives Alderheart a knowing look, then she fades.

HALF OF THIS INFORMATION WAS USELESS AND POINTLESS TO ADD IN A SHORT BIO OF WHAT SHE ACTUALLY DID IN DN. “Tree sits alone on a rocky outcrop. The yellow tom spots some movement in the shadows below him, seeing a silver pelt. He wonders if the fur is familiar, then green eyes flash up at him.” THIS IS A BIO. NOT A NOVEL.
