:After reading this thread, it seems to me that the main issue with our current model is the processing time, or turnaround. However, the main issue with user-created wikis is the lack of filtering. I propose a compromise solution: having a group with semi-elevated rights, say "wiki creators", who would be able to create wikis and grant admin and crat rights to their founder. That way, they would be able to clear the great majority of wiki requests, without needing access to special tools such as interwiki user rights management. This would require some slight modifications to the CreateWiki extension: nothing impossible, but some work nonetheless. <span style="font-family: Georgia, Garamond, serif;">[[User:Kudu|<span style="color: blue;">Kudu</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Kudu|<sup><span style="color: blue;">~I/O~</span></sup>]]</span> 18:02, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
::I really like that idea. It should be given to a fairly broad number of active users to help ensure prompt response times. I'm fine with waiting, but a lot of people aren't, especially if they end up going to some other instant service while they're waiting.

::I propose a slight caveat to that idea. To prevent this power falling into the hands of just anyone, it should be handed out to users with a proven interest in the betterment of Orain with a record relatively free of causing trouble on Orain Meta or other wikis on the farm. They should be autopatrolled at the least, and preferably be administrators of a wiki here on Orain or have solid credentials as administrators on other wiki sites, such as WMF wikia or Wikia.
