User:Tomodachi94/Fandom forking vote - DRAFT, DO NOT VOTE YET

1: FTB's offer
Feed The Beast has offered to host us on their servers. We would retain all of our organizational structure.


 * Pros: (Almost) full technical control over wiki plugins, skins, and others.
 * Cons: Concerns have been raised about Feed The Beast's technical ability to manage a MediaWiki instance. Additionally, there are concerns about losing our editorial independence and becoming a marketing piece for FTB. Advertisements might be placed on the wiki, but they would not be as extreme as Fandom's.

2: wiki.gg
wiki.gg is a wiki farm specifically targetted towards gamers.


 * Pros: Editorial independence, experienced people running the server side of the wiki, less extreme advertisements, "flexibility" with plugins and other customizations.
 * Cons: The wiki would be on a .wiki.gg subdomain, which could cause issues if we decide to migrate away. Additionally, we would be moving to yet another wiki farm.

3: Miraheze
Miraheze is a nonprofit general-purpose wiki farm.


 * Pros: Actively defends the editorial independence of their wikis, no advertisements, (optional) custom domain support.
 * Cons: There have been concerns about the stability of Miraheze's leadership. Additionally, our custom extensions (Tilesheets and OreDict, respectively) would need to be put through a review process, involving security auditing.

4: Weird Gloop
Weird Gloop is a wiki farm founded after the forking of the RuneScape wikis from Fandom.


 * Pros: Editorial independence, custom domain support, one unintrusive advertisement.
 * Cons: Weird Gloop is very strict about which extensions they allow their wikis to use. It is unknown whether Weird Gloop would allow us to use the Tilesheets and OreDict extensions.

Tangent: Renaming the wiki to the Modded Minecraft Wiki
Feed The Beast is going to pursue the creation of their own wiki, regardless of the results of this vote. This means that the Fandom wiki and the new wiki that we would fork to would not be the Official FTB Wiki unless we take FTB's offer.

There was a vote in 2017 to rename ourselves the. The vote had majority consensus, but the rename and subsequent rebrand never happened.

This is a separate vote because if we integrated this into the destination vote it would be... messy.

If you voted to FTB's offer above, it is implied that you are  the rename.

Options:
 * rename, Modded Minecraft Wiki.
 * rename, Modded Minecraft Wiki (please detail what you think should happen instead.)
 * rename, I have mixed feelings.
 * rename, remain the Feed The Beast Wiki.
