Will discussion still be open on some guides? Like the name threads.
Keeping the forum name guides for discussion purposes might still be useful - there's a discussion spot in the wiki for each entry, but those get kind of messy and difficult to keep track of after a while. The forum-based guide is useful for posting still-growing pets, too, so the pets grow up without the guide needing to be changed with every growth. ^^
Possibly the old guides could be used sort of like the outcomes guides, with just the current-month pets being displayed in the thread and the older ones being in the wiki as the archive of the past months/years, like how the pet archive is only updated when a pet is fully grown. :3 Then only the first post or two of the guide would contain pet images, which would greatly reduce the page loading times, the amount of editing needed in the wiki would be reduced, and people could still post to discuss or suggest the names they've seen or think would be most relevant for the pets that haven't got names yet. I'm planning to keep the dog name guide open for the time being so I can still get input easily from the general CS populace, though I might remove most of the older entries.
