So, Wikipedia has decided to go dark on Wednesday for 12 hours. Shall we follow suit?

It is unlikely that it will hurt the wiki's traffic, given that there is little update on the Halo franchise. Then again, our presence in the internet is fairly small compared to other sites, but some effort is better than no effort.

If a total blackout seems excessive, then maybe stick a giant Anti-SOPA logo in the landing page/main page for a day to show our support of the campaign? — subtank 18:46, 16 January 2012 (EST)

Support - The government of the United States of America needs to get their heads straight as to what that stupid bill will do.

Support - not that it's any of my business, not being a resident of the US (who am I kidding, this is going to have international consequences), but given Bungie's own recent announcement that they too oppose it, it would be extremely appropriate. A total blackout does seem a bit much, but perhaps the logo on the main/landing page, and a small, unobtrusive but noticable icon linking to an anti-SOPA site on other pages? -- Specops306 ^Autocrat ^{Qur'a 'Morhek} 22:42, 16 January 2012 (EST)

Support — Not like I do jack shit around here anyways. :P Grizzlei ♥ ツ

Support - 12 hour blackout or an anti-SOPA logo, I have no objections to either. - File:Major.png Nìcmávr ^(Tálk) 09:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)

Support - I posted my protesting of the SOPA and PIPA bill on Twitter, and I think I may do the same on Facebook, so no objections. Only that it may be a bit of a hassle for me, because working on Halopedia is all I really do since I don't have a job now, and I'll also have to set a timer so I know when to get back on. Vegerot, if you're reading any of this, when this thing goes down, let's make an iChat talk date and we'll go from there. Speaking of which, when is this thing going to be put into effect? --Xamikaze330 11:13, 17 January 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330
