Hello everyone!

Hope y'all had a lovely thanksgiving. If you're like me, you're probably already in the christmas spirit now, setting up trees and stuff. Well, there are also a few presents here on wikia

Firstly, thank you guys very much for helping out with getting the wikia back up to date. I mainly want to thank everyone who helped on the episode update checklist very much. Those people have been given a spot on the Update Team as a reward. Along with them, admins are now back from break. Starting with episode 2x06 we will be back on full wikia mode!

Secondly, wikia gave us an early christmas present (late thanksgiving?) with their new wikia-bar. The admins of this wikia don't like it, because it clashes with our hard worked on theme. But we want to know what you guys think.

With that goes the Admins and Bureaucrat issue. On chat and through messages we have been getting some questions about the bureaucrats. From our previous forum post, we could conclude that you guys generally like the work the admins and bureaucrats do. However, the current team also has a LOT of inactive people on it, as some of you might have mentioned. Therefore, we want to ask you SPECIFICALLY to give your opinion on that. Should inactive bureaucrats and admins be allowed to keep their rights, or should wikia staff be asked to remove them. We want to know what you guys think. For us (admins and bureaucrats) it doesn't seem very fair because we put in so much more effort, and someone who does not edit for almost half a year doesn't deserve the label.

Thirdly, We also revamped the main page. This was done at the request of some of you who stated that the guides were hard to find, so we linked them on the main page. I'd also like to stress that the excuse of 'not knowing the right layout' is not a reason to leave a page badly formatted. The guides are clearly there. If you choose not to read them and continue editing [causing more work to clean it all up for other contributors] then we will have to take measures.

We also added a twitter feed, because there is an increasing buzz on twitter about the 100 (more on that later in this message). We wanna know what you think of it :)

To remain in thanksgiving spirit a little longer, the admins would like to say we're very happy and thankfull to be able to guide you all in a community as lovely as this fandom is. Speaking of community, on Tuesday 4PM we were able to trend 'Watch the 100 Wednesday' and we got Jason Rothenberg 15k followers on twitter, which gave us an exclusive clip. For all of you who participated in that ; thank you :)

okay that's it for this week's message. I'm going to continue decorating my christmastree!

Happy december to everyone!
