The future is still being decided. It is entirely possible that Zelda Wiki has to return to the world of independence, in which case, they will need NIWA's help. Not being rash and removing them earlier this year might be what stopped a disaster.

My opinion, which as I gathered seems to be the opinion of most people on Discord, is that the entire situation is shaky, but unless something really shady happens, we have no good reason to remove Zelda Wiki from NIWA. The drama and stress involved in doing so is not worth the "just because" reasoning. There are good reasons for both sides, but until something big happens, I don't think anybody is going to flinch, really.

Yeah, I was going to do it, but I realized the best way would be to get the data from every file that has text. And for all Pikmin games... that's a LOT of files. This might take a while.

Good stuff! With GameCube and Wii games, it's a bit easy to get text dumps from popular games because of the tools the community creates. And even then sometimes you can just open some files with a text or hex editor and find what you want.
Come to think of it, we should put a text dump on Pikipedia as well. It kind of bothers me though -- how much does this lean on the "nasty hacking stuff" side that Nintendo frowns upon?

It truly is a horrible event... It was nice to see a lot of NIWA wikis put up a memorial of some sort on their front page, though.

Hey everybody! I'm Espyo, a moderator from Pikipedia, the Pikmin wiki. Been quite active on the wiki for the past few years, and I have no plans of slowing down. I figured I'd stop by for a little hi.
