So, the rights to the domain name [http://www.smashwiki.com www.smashwiki.com] have expired. [http://www.godaddy.com GoDaddy] is the holder and seller of those rights, but at the present, it is in a window where the old owner can renew it before it goes up. I am going to make a thread about this on SmashBoards, as I believe they (or an individual there) held the rights before the merge (and during this time where it redirected). In the meantime, is keeping the domain-name www.smashwiki.com important to everyone? I believe that we should try to keep it as many people still know it by that domain name. If we don't keep it, it's not terrible, as a Google search on SmashWiki still give the primary domain name, as does the link at the top of SmashBoards. That said, many old links will go out of date, and we become harder to find to someone who just hears of SmashWiki and tries that. Should we have to renew it ourselves, it is going to be between $10-$15 a year... Any thoughts?

::Yeah, I noticed the domain expired today (the link in my Favourites apparently went there). But I can't really think of that much of an upside to having a redirecting domain. If someone tries "www.smashwiki.com" and it doesn't work, the next thing they'll do is put it in Google, almost for certain.

: | :Well. Yal are going to have to look for the rights holder. At this point, I'm pretty sure no one wants to give $10-$15.--<span style="font-family:Forte">[[User:Megatron1|<span style="color:maroon">Mega</span>]][[User talk:Megatron1|<span style="color:silver">Tron1</span>]][[User:Megatron1/Laughology|<span style="color:blue">XD</span>]]</span>[[File:Decepticon.png|20px|:p]] 14:45, July 10, 2010 (UTC) | ||
