Exciting times are ahead! The team is having preliminary discussions to ensure our guidelines meet the needs of our contributors and the standards expected of Dune Wiki. We invite you to be part of shaping the future of our wiki!

Here's some of what we're talking about:

  • Organizational Overhaul: Proposing significant restructuring of categories and content.
  • Fanart Guidelines: Considering adjustments to how we incorporate fanart within the wiki, with the possibility of limiting or removing the option entirely. For the time being, we request that editors stop uploading fanart until we come to consensus on this topic.
  • Community rename: There's been a proposal to consider renaming the wiki from "Dune Wiki" to "Wiki of Dune".

These are open discussions, and no final decisions have been made. Your input will help us create guidelines and structures that work for everyone.

How to get involved:

  • Comment: Post any questions, suggestions, thoughts, or concerns on this blog post! And on future ones.
  • Watch for posts: Before major changes are done, proposals will be brought to the wiki in blog posts like this one, or in Discussions posts, and you will be invited to respond so that we may reach community consensus.

If you do not have Discord and want to ensure you're kept in the loop, please comment below and I will do my best to ensure you're kept informed.

Let's work together to ensure the Dune Wiki is an excellent resource for all fans of the Dune universe.
