User blog:Itachi4843/Is there a point to this wiki anymore?

Think about it for a moment. Considering the introduction of the profile feature on the LEGO Message Boards, what good is the wiki?

You have everything you need to know just by clicking on somebody's avatar. And it's accurate. No matter how many times people spam the edit button on the wiki, I've found pages with multiple edits that can't even get the flipping gender right. I'll change it to male, because I know this person, but somebody changed it back like I'm some sort of moron. Last I checked, MY page here was still using my old MB avatar. Might I remind you guys that the MB changed over half a year ago?

And I know people are gonna hiss "You have to edit pages that aren't accurate. You see an incorrect page, you edit it." like snakes in the grass. But I don't see the point in editing for an obsolete website. And speaking of editing, why are so many people here addicted to editing like it's a drug? Couldn't you do something better, healthier, or less boring for you like kicking a freaking can?

You don't get half the ease of use here like on the boards. If you're curious about somebody, you click on their face. You get:

Post count.

Rank.

Name.

Rank they had before the update. (Nice touch.)

Amount of posts the user had before the update. (Nice touch.)

Badges. (They're there in case you're wondering.)

Recent topics made (Very convenient for a stalker like me.).

Recent likes received. (Convenient for the user.)

Recent posts. (Convenient.)

Who liked what of his. (Not of much use in it's current state.)

Who he like of his what. (WHAT)

The time of which they last logged in. (Convenient.)

A green dot will tell you whether or not they are currently active. (Very convenient.)

Etc.

What does the wiki have to even hold a candle?

Random trivia about them. (Frankly the only reason why I ever consider going through the hassle of looking somebody up here.)

Role play section.

Link to the user's wiki page if he or she has one.

Lists of ranks and people with the ranks.

I was gonna say it was a convenient thing that the wiki pages showed both of a user's avatars, before and after the update, but apparently you got rid of that feature.

Do blogs have a character limit?

I thought about adding the fact that you have a bunch of topics here, and trivia for them, but why would anybody search it up here without seeing it on the boards first? And why would anybody look at it without reading it and go out of their way to search it on the wiki? You need a glimpse of something to spark your interest, right?

At this point I feel that the wiki is just trying to stay alive with the few bits of variety it has that haven't been taken and used for the LEGO MB Profile. But I think I'm going too far with this. The point of this blog is not to reinforce this thought, it's to introduce it among you freaks.

Is the wiki really that useful? Do people actually use it? SHOULD people actually use it, and why? WHY DO PEOPLE EDIT SO MUCH
