User blog:CustardBird/The Weekly Custard - October 30th, 2016

Meant to be Saturday's blog but oh well! Today: Wiki News, Interview with AustinD-3 and CPWCU Tidbits!

Wiki News
Not much happened this week-- knock, knock; it's the admins, with boats... and guns...gunboats. Today, Sunday, Techman129 was demoted for inactivity, the Wiki now stands with 4 current Chat Moderators.

==Interview with AustinD-3

Custard: So, let's get right into it, what do you think of the Wiki in its current state?

AustinD-3: Being totally honest, the wiki is dying in activity, I really think when "Fandom" releases discussions it will increase a little. Also, When PSS releases, and if it's good. I believe this wiki will have a jump in activity. This is sort of evident with the whole Pokemon Go app with the Pokemon wiki.

Custard: What are your feelings on the Wiki's vote page?

AustinD-3: I think it could be done a lot neater being honest here, it is completely unorganized and unarchived. A major change should be done ASAP.

Custard: How do you feel about POTM [Penguin of the Month, where we dub somebody the User of the Month and feature them on our front page]?

AustinD-3: I feel like it's becoming a bit repetitive as there is little activity on this wiki, it always seems the administration here is always having to nominate users last second too, as nobody usually gets nominated in the entire month.

Custard: Now, as asked last week, how do you feel about the renaming of Wikia to Fandom?

AustinD-3: Terrible.

Custard: Now, last week, Hypercane announced he was leaving the Wiki, what was your initial reaction to this, before him returning?

AustinD-3: I was shocked, he is one of the best chat mods on this wiki and very active too, with him gone it would've left a huge gap in the list of moderators in terms of ones who are really active (as you, Tech and hyper are the only ones I really see on ALL day. [sic]) I'm so glad he decided to stay.

Custard: And that's it! Thanks for your time!
