Hi everyone. I have a few things that I'd like to discuss here.

1. Should the focus categories be removed? By this, I mean the categories like "Episodes focusing on Lincoln". I have seen them cause quite a few edit wars, which makes sense, due to them being subjective categories. An episode page like A Tattler's Tale has been a controversial episode for whether it focuses on Lincoln or not, and many users have been involved with adding and removing this category due to their opinion on it. I just think these categories are causing too much trouble. I think it may in the wiki's best interest to remove these categories, but I'd like to know what you guys think.

2. Should the TLH Wiki Discord be invite only? Right now it's easy for anyone to join the discord, but someone suggested to me that maybe it should be invite only to ensure only the wiki's contributors are allowed on the wiki's discord. This sounds like a good idea to me, and I'd be more than happy to provide the link to anyone who would like to join if we decide to take this route. There are currently 90 members of the discord, but I only see the same like 15 members actually go on and interact in there. Many of the members I don't even recognize as editors here, but they may just be using a different username for wiki and discord.

3. This is directed towards the Admins. I was trying to come up with a way for us to nominate users that we feel should be promoted. Recently I talked with someone about where we could nominate users, and he suggested that we could make a project page to submit our nominations. After a user is successfully nominated, they would then go through the election process that we have been using. So do you think that a project page should be made for nominations, or do you have something else on mind? If we are going to make a project page, I can set up an example of what a nomination would look like, if you wish.

I think there was a fourth thing, but I can't remember it right now. Please give me your thoughts on these topics and what we should do regarding them. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
