Hi Daniel, Connecting users across Wikia communities more is something we have been thinking about. The Gaming Hub has a pretty cool Community announcement section that is for this exact purpose, but as you mentioned there is no RSS feed for that.
We are working on a new version of Wikia Blogs that allow users to create Blogs posts on the wiki which will have RSS feeds. Its currently live on entertainment.wikia and gaming.wikia if you want to try it out (see Blogs in side bar navigation). We are planning for a more broader release in Jan after we iron out all the kinks. Do you think this feature could accomplish what you are trying to do? -- Angie Shelton VP, Product and Content Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Sat, Dec 6, 2008 at 1:11 AM, Daniel Friesen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > What's happened with ideas like the Wikia Blogs? > > I'm mentioning more of the concept. > I thought about something today and had a good idea. > > A lot of Animanga wiki don't get very much attention, and that's > especially true for new wiki.
