Your thread is so wrong on so many levels.
- The old mediawiki was open and it was in a terrible state the whole 5 years I was responsible for keeping it running. (Wrong in a sense of outdated and wrong infromation and there were no masses coming in and fixing it)
- The internet has changed since and we have even people registering to FAF and using the single sign on to sneak their shitty website urls into their signature and do trash posts. So we will not open it to registration for everyone.
- Everyone who asks for it gets access. I have not heard of a single case where we did not allow it. You just need to invest 10 minutes of work to ask around who can give access and you will get it.
- It was intended to run with single-sign-on just as the forum does (so basically every FAF user can get it), but it's pretty low on our priority list.
This has nothing to do with democracy. This is the dumbest shit I have heard in a while. Right now it is 100% a technical decision and no I will not let anyone vote on this as long as I'm responsible for tech.
