Some of the last active users are [[User:Toa 95]] (though seems to be on another break), with [[User:Viperision]] [[User:Hope(N Forever)]] adding things not too long ago. <span style="color:#FF00FF><font face="Blackadder ITC"><span style="font-size:150%">[[User talk:Torchickens|<span style="color:#FF00FF;">From Evie (Torchickens) ✿</span>]]</font></span> 10:37, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

On the other hand, this would 'fix what isn't broken', require every wiki to update the name, prompt a text replace and check that it doesn't break anything, etc. Thoughts? <span style="color:#FF00FF><font face="Blackadder ITC"><span style="font-size:150%">[[User talk:Torchickens|<span style="color:#FF00FF;">From Evie (Torchickens) ✿</span>]]</font></span> 20:39, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

I very want them back now, but only if a) No passwords, no leaked photos of staff (etc.), strictly prohibited b) 1 year or more has passed. Also, some NIWA members cover leaks; we are already not safe, regardless of fair use but if Nintendo tell us to, we can remove them again.
