In the past there was no easy way to reverse a decision about creating
a wiki, so we were forced to be much more conservative in our
decisions. Now that any member of the comteam can disable, rename, or
merge a wiki, we can trial many more topics rather than make a guess
about how well it will do. It also makes the process quicker if we
don't do detailed research into each request, which means that we
don't need to keep requesters waiting for more than a day. This was
quite different in the past when users sometimes waiting a week to
hear back from us.
