Introduction

This petition recieved three endorsements regarding having a separate reviews wiki as part of SpongeBobia. While the subject of reviews has been discussed before, the question is, should we have a separate wiki, or should we include reviews right at ESB?

This discussion will end on Wednesday, May 6, 2015 at 9:10 a.m., eastern time. — AMK152 (Wall • Contrib) 13:04, April 29, 2015 (UTC)

  • Support Support - I do think it would be a good idea, as fans can share their opinions and not cause drama in the comments or threads. ~Prez 20:51, April 29, 2015 (UTC)

  • Neutral Neutral - We can already review episodes using their article comments or forum threads, so I'm not sure that we need an entire wiki for reviews. ~JCM 18:02, May 1, 2015 (UTC)

  • Support Support - I will support as long as those two wikis will be linked well and if users agree, the reviews wiki improved with templates, which I can do with pleasure, to ease posting reviews. In other words, as long as users will be able to easily use the reviews wiki, I support.  AW10  Talk  Contribs  E-Mail  09:55,5/9/2015

Put Reviews at ESB

  • Support Support - I am more inclined to support putting the reviews at ESB, whether it be a reviews tab on articles or something else. After all, the socializing within the network (besides Skype) is done here at ESB. Some people are uneasy about adding additional wikis to the network (including the unpopular SpongeBob Memes wiki) and it may be a better idea to try it out here first, where we are more likely to see activity in a reviews section. The reviews would require a series of templates and the structure built here could more easily accomodate that, as I have had ideas of a reviews "tab" functionality for some time now. — AMK152 (Wall • Contrib) 13:11, April 29, 2015 (UTC)

  • Oppose Oppose - The wiki's supposed to be an information database. I may be wrong but...I have another point. People keep sharing their opinions in the comments and sometimes lead to spam messages. Which is also another reason why the SBR is a good alternative to that. Flag500 Luis~SBCA M C   13:24, April 29, 2015 (UTC) 
  • Neutral Neutral - Honestly, I'm still trying to decide which would be better. Though it will be a great idea to have it here, I wonder how we are going to do it. Are we going to have like a different section or page for the reviews and include a link somewhere onto the episode page to include it? Is it going to be included in the episode tab or something? It does seem like a good idea but it made get cluttered with all of those pages around? As for having the reviews at the other wiki, it's definately a good idea since that wiki will be solely on reviews on episodes and there are plently of episodes in the series. However, I do agree that it may be a bit much to keep going back and forth between wikis just to review episodes. Plus, the wiki is just developing so a lot more work is needed to be done there first before we can get serious with that wiki. I don't know for now... Both ideas seem good but they also have their con as well. I'd would see what others will think first but I if had to pick between the two, I'd choose this wiki since it saves having to constanly go to another one.

  • Template:Strong Support I don't see why not... —Lewis2567 (WallContribs) 20:52, April 30, 2015 (UTC)
  • Support Support - Like I said above, we can already talk about episodes in the comments or in the forum, but I wouldn't be opposed to a review tab or something similar. ~JCM 18:02, May 1, 2015 (UTC)
  • Neutral Neutral - Eh... Maybe. TheGamingSponge 06:25, May 6, 2015 (UTC)

  • Oppose Oppose - Isn't a wiki supposed to be a site of documentation? So doesn't it seem unbecoming to bog it down with fan content? Also, almost 100% of fans believe that the show stopped being good immediately after the first movie and has been horrible for years (myself included; I have no idea how you can keep doing this; I would've lost the strength to maintain a Spongebob wiki years ago). So wouldn't all the reviews of all the post-movie episodes be negative, and all the pre-movie episodes positive, or at best, a minute percentage of post-movie episode reviews would say that they were still inferior to before the movie came out?

  • Template:Extremly Strong Oppose This is a wikia only for SpongeBob information. We don't need a whole website just for reviews. -SonicTheEpic (talk) 01:10, May 14, 2015 (UTC)
