I'm on the middle ground regarding the matter - I do see the positive things what a new server would bring, such as the ability to have more freedom in editing the wiki and to not be under a threat of content removal by Wikia staff. However, I'm still not completely convinced by the points noted, and I can't support the removal of the current wiki yet (it doesn't seem like a simple thing to do either, the removal of the current wiki).


 * First of all, I'd like to hear is it actually a real worry that our current wiki may be a subject to content removal by Wikia? That may be a difficult question to answer to, but I'd at least like to hear of any examples of this happening to other wikis.


 * Another thing I'll add, the current wiki in my eyes is fine as it is in what it is supposed to do - information delivery of the game. Having more freedom in editing and thus, being able to improve the wiki more would be just an icing on the cake - adding more to something what is already good. In other words, while the improved editing potential is a good thing, it is not necessary.


 * I don't see the ads and loading times an important enough point to be noted personally, especially since there does exist such a thing as adblock.


 * I'm pretty optimistic regarding the donations - Kancolle seems to have a fairly mature player base and I remember an old thread in General Discussion about the user's ages here in the wiki, and from what I remember, the average age was over 20. Kancolle is also aimed at an older audience. I'm pretty sure there are enough of frequent wiki users who are in the work force and are willing to / able to donate 1$ or 2$ /month. As such, I have no concerns regarding this matter.

To be honest, I'd enjoy a new wiki too - I'm just not convinced enough to support the removal of the current wiki however. I do think coexistence is an option, but I do fear there is a high chance the other site will end up stagnating.
