I felt like starting over was better because of the state of how it was before and after I adopted the wiki. The wiki has many false and vandalized pages with anonymous users vandalizing the wiki any chance they get such as adding nonsensical categories on miscellaneous pages. There are also many pages with outdated information that would take me a very long time to make those pages up-to-date. The wiki has been getting traction over the time I started editing the wiki, editing while as the adoptive founder of the wiki, and when I stepped off the wiki to create this wiki and yes, the wiki gets some editors from time to time but the wiki never gets any long-time editors to help create pages or put up correct information. They usually only upload photos on a Pop! figure's respective line and then never come back. I also given random users administrator privileges because I was so desperate for users to stay around and I always hated how I managed the wiki back then. I created the Funkopedia wiki as a fresh new start because I believe it can help benefit not only me but a community the wiki will (hopefully) attract in the future because I want a fresh retake on my role as I never liked how I ran the wiki as the adoptive founder back there. I saw the Funko wiki and what it was like before I even started editing there and I believe that Funko never got the wiki community it deserved as it felt in-editors, unorganized and clearly abandoned. I also want to grow the community and I think having a fresh start on the wiki will engage people to interact with each other and edit the wiki more often. I never wanted to abannon the previous Funko wiki but I believe starting over will be the wisest choice to take so that the wiki won’t die out. I will advertise to the public this wiki when it is at a state where it is ready for public viewing. I will also edit this wiki whenever I have free time since I am very busy in real life and I am also a huge Funko fan owning many collectibles and still growing. I guessing that the experiment over there is to either give the wiki's it's own dedicated marketplace which is a really neat feature for people to buy Funko products and merchandise on the spot or to migrating the wiki community to fandom.com with other wikis. Please give your feedback to all of this and if you have any questions, I will happily answer them. Thank you for reading this and I hope to see your opinions soon!
