Removing Antarctican
Would be nice if you didn't do that. It's against the ToU of Wikia - at least discuss it with us here or provide a link. If it's to a fork of this wiki, welp. 21:14, January 18, 2013 (UTC) ~) The Elector, Darkness Immaculate

- It's going through a huge revamp right now, and it's my conlang.

Yes, I know it's your conlang, but Wikia practice disallows moving of content to another host. I'm bending the rules here - do you want to remove it from the wiki? If you do, I can delete it rather than have you blank it. 19:33, January 19, 2013 (UTC) ~) The Elector, Darkness Immaculate

'''- OK, could you do that. Thanks a lot.Linguist Wannabe (talk) 02:20, January 20, 2013 (UTC)'''

Done! If you ever want it back, just notify me and I'll restore it. Good luck! 10:29, January 20, 2013 (UTC) ~) The Elector, Darkness Immaculate

EDIT: Whatever, it's your choice and language after all (if you don't know what I'm talking about, check the history of this page). 10:33, January 20, 2013 (UTC) ~) The Elector, Darkness Immaculate

allegations of forking

 * Why didn't you say which wiki it was. As it stands, Linguifex is an offshot of this wiki - that is definitely not something allowed by Wikia (moving content to sites that split off of Wikia) :|

Sorry for hopping in but I'd like to correct a misunderstanding. Linguifex is not a fork. It is as much an offshoot of Wikia as Conlang@Wikia is of FrathWiki and Langmaker. It was originally a personal project for reliable, ad-free hosting of my own constructed languages in a MediaWiki format (something which other sites have failed to satisfy). Currently, it has expanded to have several languages by other users - some of which (including myself) - have at one time or another had an account on Conlang@Wikia. This in itself does not make it a fork. You wouldn't call this wiki a fork of wikipedia or frathwiki just because some users have accounts there and contribute, right?

As owner, bureaucrat and ultimately supremely responsible person for Linguifex I formally protest being called a fork of Wikia; this is belittling of all the hard work I and others have put into Linguifex and to be honest quite insulting.

I would appreciate it if any future references to my website do not call it a fork of this place. Thanks. ~ Billy J.B(talk) 22:46, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
