Opportunity knocking?
If I had control over this narrow part of the universe, here's what I'd like to see happen:


 * GWW continues ("narrow part" doesn't include GWW)
 * GW@Wikia dies as a knowledge base; I applaud any squatters that might want to use the subdomain for something original.
 * GWiki@tbd reinvents itself, to emphasize the things it does best (innovation, openness, support for the non-elite, the non-minimax, and the spirit-of-the-role players). It ceases to compete w/GWW on fundamental data (where it is almost always behind).

Logically, the world doesn't need three KBs for the same game. But does it need even two? GWW & GWiki have different strengths and weaknesses. Should we take advantage of the impending changes to emphasize GWiki's contributions?
 * GWW is better at gathering data and presenting it quickly and uniformly. (More hands on deck.) GWiki is slow to respond (stale weekend events/game updates; even now, we aren't WiK complete).
 * GWiki is often better at information, especially in terms of helping the majority of players. GWiki more often provides guides/walkthroughs that don't require special skills or elite playing abilities. It presents better options for playing in-the-spirit-of-the-role.
 * GWiki has tended to be more innovative, e.g. offering predictive information about daily activities (and presenting them on the main page).
 * GWiki has traditionally been more accepting of editors of all types.
