The CWCki's been trying to cut back on the speculative stuff for the past few months. I guess it's really our fault for not making it more apparent. As a guideline, conjecture and theory are supposed to be kept to a minimum. Still, if you feel I was wrong to edit it out (and feel that you can substantiate your theories), please feel free to edit it back in.

File Sizes

Hey man, nice artwork on the Ep. 2 remake, but you need to go back and reduce all the file sizes to <150kb. --Dude 22:02, 25 December 2009 (CET)

  • Curses! Foiled again! Alright, I'll see about doing that sometime in the near future. --NeoShadow 23:53, 25 December 2009 (CET)
  • Nice work! =) --Dude 19:44, 26 December 2009 (CET)

The Proposal

You should have left what you said! I tried to edit mine to be more like what you wrote. Sorry I beat you to the punch there :D --Dude 09:52, 3 January 2010 (CET)

  • Ah, lol. I just noticed that you posted something before me, so I figured, no point in having 2 posts about the same topic. --NeoShadow 17:13, 3 January 2010 (CET)

vids

Nice job on the videos :D Yeah I kinda crashed into slumber without my old name, but it looks like that's going to be resolved pretty quick (new dude sounds like an ok guy). So I'll join in on the sweatshop updating crew soon!! I'm just sad I didn't get to earn my Moving Badge, lol --Umad 03:34, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Quick suggestion - could you try to add links to dates in the infobox? Like, if it was made 03 August 2008, could you please make sure that August 2008 is linked? Just if I'm looking really quick at info, it might be handy. Really, great work and even though some people dislike the idea, guess what? THOSE PEOPLE AREN'T HERE ON THE NEW CWCKI, LOLOLOLOL. --Champthom 19:34, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

  • LOL! Okay, man. I'm on it :). Thank you for the kind words, as they gi-, giv-, gi-... they offer me new inspiration to finish my work for the TRUE and LOYAL sonichu fans. --NeoShadow 20:37, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

CENTER

Center Tags are no longer needed on video templates, and should be eliminated POST HASTE! Pass it on.--Umad 01:07, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

  • NOOOOOooo (*inhale*) oooo! Just kidding. It shouldn't take too long to correct the vids. --Morganna 01:14, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Order of the Sonichu

For your work and dedication with making infoboxes that prevent videos in a neat, presentable manner and effectively summarizing video content, you have been awarded the Order of the Sonichu. Congratulations and keep up the good work. --Champthom 02:28, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

  • Oh my... I don't know what to say... I have dreamed, my whole life for this moment :'). I shall continue my work, you can be assured of that!
Oh, and I'd like to give special shoutouts to users Umad, Morganna and of course Xentrilus for their help with the Infoboxes. None of this would've been possible without you guys! :D --NeoShadow 12:41, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

"Then what? I mean, if all the CWCki does is archive only the facts of what we know, then that's a goal that can be easily reached and then what? the CWCki stays unchanged until someone finally stops paying for the domain?"
I have an archive of the site that I update every once in a while. If things go offline, the archive will still exist, and I'll distribute it to people who want it. If people stop editing the CWCki, that's fine because it signifies that the documentation of Chris is as complete as possible.

"Speculation on Chris and why he does the things he does is what drives the CWC community, so I doubt that eliminating speculation from the biggest CWC related site would be a good idea."
For the most part, such speculation is already gone. One of the primary issues that arose when there was speculation here was that people got confused as to what was real and what was the speculation of the writer, and so some half-truths were perceived as fact and some true things were considered hyperbole (unfortunately, I don't have an example on-hand, so I can't really back that statement up, but that's what I remember about a year ago). I also remember that some articles were exceptionally long due to huge sections on speculation, which dissuaded people from reading articles (tl;dr was thrown around a lot where I was)
"Then again, I guess I could just write my own speculation things on pages under my own userpage."
I'm fairly certain that's allowed, though I'm not certain about that. Probably best to ask Champ about that one. As Moarlurk said, when there were some server issues, user pages were mentioned, though I don't think I ever found out what came of it.
I'm not sure if you were here for the Offshore CWCki, but it was a forum for CWCki speculation that quickly turned to shit, and so it's left a sour taste in many peoples' mouths. I won't say that speculating is a bad thing, because I think you have a point in saying that it's a driving force in the CWC community, but there have been problems associated with allowing speculation into articles, etc. and I think you'll find people are justifiably reluctant to let it back into them.
