Alrighty, all these silly pages and conjecture pages are clogging up the mainspace. I think you know what the proposed solution is. Move them to user spaces.

This includes stuff like Romantic Arguments, Villain Debates and so on.

And no, a Conjecture mainspace won't be made.

Good. It's about time we organize the mainspace for the FFWiki after three years of existence.

We could intergrate them into the game articles. It's evident that we don't have a universal look for the game articles; most of them were copies of Wikipedia's rewritten for an informal look. We could standardize them like we did other pages.

As for the Nonsense and Conjecture, I have two proposals:
1. Move them to userspace according to first wrote or hosted them. Because it's purely evident that some of these conjecture are written from an editor's perspective, or

2. Move them to the UnFinalFantasy Wiki, which is an attempt to parody FF. We could always link them to the related articles. And I do think the UnFF needs more than just unfunny content.

I think if conjecture is notable, it should stay in the mainspace. We're not Wikipedia.

Well, the last thing I want is another stupid User Page. All I want are Archives for my Talk and Picture of the Week. You can just flat-out delete my nonsense. It doesn't even makes sense (which totally sucks for FFVIII).

How sad that my Nonsense Category did not even make it a week.

I love conjeture and nonsense, they are funny to read! But I'm nothing more than a non-editing user, so... yeah...

Everyone's already forgotten about it anyway, so I don't see the problem.

Also, Bluer is the one who feels really passionate about this. I just made the suggestion.

And no, a Conjecture mainspace won't be made.

@BH: What you just said made no sense...If we already have a Walkthrough Space why would we move the walkthroughs from it to a Fan-Material space? Makes no fucking sense.

@Everyone else: I think Pablo just gave the solution to our problems.

Another namespace? Sorry, Henry, we've swamped the technicians in Wikia with enough tasks already.

I don't really see how these things are clogging up the mainspace. If you move them to userpage subpages they might as well be deleted because no one will notice them.

I think there is a clearly perceptible line between what is reasonable conjecture and nonsense. There are facts that make certain articles more interesting (IE: The identity of Gogo) but then there are things that make the whole wiki worse and really aren't worth having in the mainspace (Sephiroth v.
