I have noticed as of late that some users have been creating fanon articles using the Layout Builder, which makes it very hard for both users and admins to cleanup those articles in addition to it being hard for a user to write a high quality piece of fanon with the Layout Builder. Personally, I think that we should uninstall the Layout Builder (as it is rarely used anyway) to make it easier to patrol fanon amongst any other articles created on the wiki.

  • This is a very good background. I rate it 8/10, 16/20, 80%. It is much more colorful and interesting than our current one. However, it has some weak spots. For example, I can't see The Sims series' most important thing: the PlumbBob. If you can add it, I think the background will be perfect.

Lost Labyrinth Image:Flag united kingdom england.svg • (c) • (b) 18:42, July 11, 2011 (UTC) File:Icon yes check v.svg - Weak Support - While I think they could be disabled (as it has been causing major damage on pages who use it) I don't know what we should do to pages that use them, delete them and recreate without the layout? --Guilherme GuerreiroFile:Thanks rose.png(talk here) 19:05, July 11, 2011 (UTC) Is there any way to make the layout builder more user-friendly, rather than just disabling it. -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by LostInRiverview (talk • contribs) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~~~~ 20:41, July 11, 2011 (UTC) Since posting this, I have tried to think of a possible way of making the Layout Builder more user-friendly without causing collateral damage to those articles that already use it. Given that I haven't used the tool, I'm kind of unsure how it works but if anyone here has used it, here or another wiki, and they have an idea, feel free to post it. Lost Labyrinth Image:Flag united kingdom england.svg • (c) • (b) 20:46, July 11, 2011 (UTC) If we disable it, we should recreate the pages rather than delete them, as most are only poor quality through the layout builder. But I feel the decision to uninstall it is best. --WH (talk) 23:19, July 11, 2011 (UTC) This has been pending for a while, has anyone come up with a solution? Thank you. --Guilherme GuerreiroFile:Thanks rose.png (talk here) 18:54, August 4, 2011 (UTC) Sadly, I'm not sure if there is a way we can resolve this without causing quite a bit of collateral damage. Saying that, there doesn't seem to be a way that we can stop a fanon article from being made on the Layout Builder. I guess we'll just have to put up with it...
