User blog:Inferno Pendragon/It's Time To Stop Making Stories

The title sounds dramatic but it's true - we all need to STOP making new stories, just for the time being and focus on completing ones we already have: the wiki is getting too large and filled with incomplete stories, we need to finish the stories we are involved in instead of tossing them aside and making new ones.

I'm not going to make any new stories and I'd really appreciate if the wiki made this a temporary rule - if we are serious about keeping any kind of canon we need to do this, this rule should extend to new users and old users alike: NO NEW STORIES - we can't afford to be altering canon when we have so many stories on hold that could change canon in ways we never thought of before.

What's the point in making a super-cool story if it is just going to cause existing stories people have been working on to be deleted as they no longer work in canon? There are MANY events that are major yet have to be editted..

If we focus on the past and edit stories that NEED editting we can progress this shared multiverse a little better, quite a few users no longer contribute specifically because their stories have been neglected (look up the database, you'll see what I mean).

As a small example of how prolific this problem is I'm going to list a few stories right here that have been waiting on edits, as well as unfinished stories in general.. I hope those reading the blog will get what I'm getting at once they see this..
