Personally, I wouldn't mind a restart to the forums, for now at least, rather than putting energy into trying to restore them. The amount of information now in the forums is too large easily to deal with right now.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 20:32, 9 August 2013 (UTC) | Personally, I wouldn't mind a restart to the forums, for now at least, rather than putting energy into trying to restore them.

Removing the forums and replacing them with on-wiki discussion has the disadvantage that the forums are the only place where non-Citizens can provide comments about anything that we're doing, so this change would make it impossible to hear their concerns. I think that, if we want to remove the forums, we need to provide some other venue that serves the purpose that I mentioned. I don't know how easy this is to do in MediaWiki, but perhaps have a specific page or namespace that non-logged-in users can edit?

Comments on proposal item #1
Memory question
Can we see if there is an option for more memory? Having more RAM might allow more people to work simultaneously without noticeable slowdowns..Pat Palmer 20:27, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Could we just not restore forums, for now?
Personally, I wouldn't mind a restart to the forums, for now at least, rather than putting energy into trying to restore them. The amount of information now in the forums is too large easily to deal with right now.Pat Palmer 20:32, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
- Removing the forums and replacing them with on-wiki discussion has the disadvantage that the forums are the only place where non-Citizens can provide comments about anything that we're doing, so this change would make it impossible to hear their concerns. I think that, if we want to remove the forums, we need to provide some other venue that serves the purpose that I mentioned.
