:Ensuring that every edit that copies content from the fandom wiki is properly disclosed and attributed sounds like a nightmare. Most of the material on the fandom wiki is really poorly structured and written anyway, so I don't see how we're losing out on much by blanket banning that content from being copied over entirely. Using CC-BY-NC-SA hasn't stopped sites like Bulbapedia or the Minecraft Wiki from running ads, and I don't really see any other situations where using a non-commercial licence restricts what we can do.

:Telling me I should start the whole project over from scratch just because you don't like the license is ''wild''. Relicensing isn't impossible. If I wanted to relicense material on Blooncyclopedia for whatever reason, then I could get the consent from the site's contributors to have their material released under a different license. This could be done with a [https://megamanwiki.com/wiki/Mega_Man_Wiki:Re-licensing_of_the_wiki discussion on the wiki where authors explicitly agree to have their material relicensed]. We would have to undo/revert material from anyone who didn't give consent, but that's still much better than deleting everything and starting over.

::I see. This proposed idea does sound cooler. Creative Commons licenses cannot be revoked, but there is the option of putting multiple licenses on work, and future modifications can be put under different licenses if legally possible. I wonder if it will be easier to relicense the wiki early on so that fewer editors will have to be sought for permission to have their contributions relicensed.
