User blog comment:Alex001/The New Wikis - Pros and Cons/@comment-477220-20101110190301


 * The editing space has lowered by half, much less than Wikia. There's only a small box for me to edit the article. Is it just me or the wiki?

It is the same as Monaco and Monobook.


 * No images, like SN said. Still no images to date. A bot is broken, and when I try to import an image myself (I do have import powers), guess what? The image wikitext turns blue, I click on it and up goes the 'Upload Page' page.

Time will tell.


 * Blog posts and forums are still underway.

Patience.

''Now, I've checked up on this and even the new CPFW could not get away with COPPA. When I was on the IRC, I spotted a line describing 'thirteen-year-olds'. Checking on it, it seems the IRC also follows COPPA. If I'm not wrong, websites that don't follow COPPA would be shut down. Some users may be in trouble if they had revealed their identity. ''

Stupid COPPA... we should put in the welcome template, sitenotice, and others that you must say that you are 13 to edit.
