TMG, this time is completely different than the last attempted merge. jet and gage were not apart of this idea, i saw this as an opportunity to set things right considering the number of excessive wikis. this time, the community gets to choose what happens, phase 1 was accomplished in less than a week! that i would like to congratulate everyone on that :)
 * NBW won't necessarily be closed, that all depends on the community. since we have all agreed to close buzz bee toys and dart blaster wiki respectfully, those are no longer candidates for a potential location. its now down to NBW and DBE. if the community wants to give NBW another chance to try and fix the flaws, we can wait but this does need to be resolved soon.


 * RNN can complain all he wants if we all decide to close NBW. During the process of closing NBW, we can link wikia staff to the discussion and mention that he is just acting childish. this is the suggested type of merge discussion that wikia staff wants, something that involves the community rather than just local staff.


 * if DBE is selected to be the new location, i do ask that rather than importing everything; let's try to verify information before we post it. if there are concerns over policy, we can also discuss that when get to that point. i am also considering rewriting some of it in the meantime when i have time.

i will admit that it took a while for me to completely understand what it means to become a better admin and learn how to be one. it just takes time to sink in after you read staff's blog tips.
