I think those last two messages perfectly sum up the problem here. Several of those who moved to the other wiki haven't "left", they maintain a minimal presence. But at the same time their focus and passion is with the new wiki, they consider this one dead and pointless.

So the question becomes, why are they here? In some cases, it's clear - to disrupt and damage this wiki. But for others, in particular those with admin rights, it's more subtle. One possibility is a feeling of stewardship or responsibility for the old wiki. The other is a deliberate strategy to suppress this wiki and prevent its recovery.

In either case, now is the right time for this wiki to start on its own path, without the previous community trying to control or influence what happens here. Stewardship from the past community is no longer required, and deliberate sabotage won't be tolerated.
