I never said I had good writing skills, I merely voiced the fact that some people may be scared away by the sheer number of awful pages on the wiki. The fact that I am relevant on the SCP Foundation wiki, does not make me relevant at all here, I was only stating that their method for dealing with awful pages and criticism is very effective. Also I may have come across as a bit demanding, I don't want to irritate anyone I am only making a suggestion. I realize that this is near impossible and that the admins won't put all their faith into me. I am not saying that this has never been suggested before, I'm sure it has, I merely wanted to make a civilised response to the problems on this wiki.

I am knew, and I want to improve this wiki however I can. It's hard, I know, but maybe no pages for a week or two could give the admins time to skim through all the pages and delete those that are particuarly bad. If this had been suggested when there weren't almost 12'000 pages on the wiki then it would be much easier.

Again, if this has irritated or annoyed anyone I mean no harm to anyone on this site. Don't worry about. I might have been overly harsh on what was just a suggestion to help this wiki out, and I apologize for that. I'm glad someone is taking initiave to help this wiki, and I just feel your idea is hard to put into action.

If you want to help this wiki, you could edit bad grammar wherever you spot it on articles, and mark any stories for review that you don't feel belong here. You could help out in the Writer's Workshop by reviewing stories. We're hard-pressed to find people who care enough to read the unfinished stories of others and offer feedback.

Lastly, I think you should try adding your own stories. I'd like to read them and tell you what I think.
