| ::I was thinking something like "Pikmin Wikia - The old wiki about Pikmin", but perhaps a bit better. It wouldn't tell users where it has moved to, but it would at least stop them from editing there. Also, naming it Pikmin Wikia could help differentiate between the old and new Pikipedia, but that's not too important.

| I was looking through [[Special:WantedPages|WantedPages]], and I found that there are quite a few things that shouldn't be there, especially Halo: Reach.

| :Yeah, I noticed that. They've only appeared in the last few days - actual pages exist too - and a search gives them as being [[wikia:c:halo:127th Regiment|from Halopedia]] (which is odd, 'cause even if they were moving, they're not Nintendo so wouldn't join NIWA).

| Does Pikipedia have a policy on blocking? I'm not quite sure if I should or should not have blocked [[User:Turtwig389|this user]]. Should I have given a warning first? {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}
| |
| | |
| :We don't have a policy, no. I would say if it's not obviously vandalism, warn them first; and even if it is, and looks more like just seeing if the page will actually change when they edit it, I'll just warn them. But then, I'm quite lenient. As I see it, you should only resort to blocking when it's necessary, as blocking a user who means no harm will probably put them off editing, but if a user vandalises again we can always revert it. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>
