Hey all, I’m just wondering if I could get some perspective on this from outside people.
There are a ton of subs that are still on reddit, don’t seem to be interested in moving over, and still have a plethora of data. A lot of them have links to outside sources, which is great because you can just post that over here. But many of them have extensively utilized the built-in wiki function for their subreddits, and have huge, written out posts of lots of easy-to-read information synthesized for their userbase.
Because they are reddit wikis, my first instinct would be to not actually link directly to that wiki, but to copy it elsewhere. But then that divorces the content from the creator, as they are often credited as reddit users. It feels a little easier when the person who created the wiki, or is marked as the last person to edit the wiki, doesn’t appear to be an active reddit user anymore, because that kind of assumes that they have abandoned the data to be used freely - but I feel less certain when the wikis are being semi-actively maintained by reddit users.
What are your thoughts on this?
