Forums: Index > Jolly's Tavern > New wiki name proposal

This proposal is over. The result is to keep the sites original name. DO NOT VOTE IN THIS FORUM ANYMORE, TAKE IT TO THE DISCUSSION PAGE. --Arav the Undersith 02:19, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Ok, here we go. This is a proposal to change the wiki's name. I found 3 suggestions. If you have one idea, add it.

Voting finishes in 3 weeks as it is a big proposal. --Arav the Undersith 09:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Banjopedia

Support

yes i think it looks cool i mean you take Zeldapedia and Wookieepedia like it was called the Legend of Zelda wiki and it changed onto Zeldapedia-Boba fett 32

Oppose

--Arav the Undersith 09:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Banjo-wiki

Support

Oppose

--Arav the Undersith 09:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Banjo-Kazooie Wiki

Support

Yes. Keep the name the same. People will find it easier to know what the wiki is. --Arav the Undersith 09:04, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

I think it's the best name, both names should be in the name, you can't forget Kazooie! Marta Ägnös ^{(Diskussion, MUM, LC, DT)} 12:23, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, it's the best name! --Mario Lover

Comments

For now I might not support or oppose yet. Although I like the new names and think it would be good, changing the name will have its consequences. Having "Banjo-Kazooie Wiki" on every article greatly increases our Google results (especially at a time like this). People are unlikely to look up Banjopedia or anything unless if they know us already. Anyway I may support a name later. Chicken7 ^>talk _>sign 12:10, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

We already had a forum there.... Anyway, I would have liked to be able to discuss this further before voting. Jimbo-Jambo

hi i am glad that we have a vote-page! so yes i DO think that we should change the wiki title anyway i will participate later-Boba fett 32 22:15, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Just another thing, There may be a wiki about banjos (instrument) so Banjo-Pedia, etc. would be vague or kind of not descriptive enough.

Good point there, that would be a fatal mistake. I say we keep the old name. And besides, what would Kazooie think? (LOL after writing this.) Learner4 20:54, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
