So this is something we've talked about before, and something that has been on my back burner for a while, but after an interesting conversation with some of the Marvel Crossroads user (that have been on the other side of the admin team's feelings on the subject far too many times), I'm going to push this forward a bit.

I think we could benefit from a "Promotional Forum".

Now, we have a "No Promotion/No Spam" policy; if you put up a blog spamming your site, we take it down, and block the bot account (if applicable). But in that zero-tolerance policy, users that want to promote their Marvel/comic related wikis are often lumped in with spam bots.

So, I'd suggest a promotional forum; You want someone to visit your fanon/Spider-Man/X-Men Video Game/Whatever wiki, stick an entry in the promotional forum. If people like it, they can visit; if not, oh well.

I'll be honest and say that I personally don't see the point in a wiki dedicated to one specific facet of Marvel when you could just add info here and have it be seen and expanded upon, but I also see it being beneficial to keep an open relationship with other wikis, especially if they intersect with our subject matter. And I don't see the relationship being open if we shut down their posts and come off as though we don't want to share users.

Thoughts?
