As you can probably see on top of your userpages, blogging is now enabled at The Vault. For more info about wiki blogs, see [[Help:Blog article]]. Ausir 20:36, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

- I was just thinking that. I'm sick of removing 'misplaced' categories from pages. "Another failure from Wikia command!" Fat Man Spoon 20:42, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, blog posts are listed in their own section at the bottom of the category page, even under images. I guess it's that's not *that* bad. Still, I'd prefer blog and article categories to be clearly separate. Ausir 20:48, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
- I managed to find a way to hide the category cloud from Special:CreateBlogPage. Ausir 21:11, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

News
Actually, looks like the blogs can be pretty useful. There's a blog listing functionality, which allowed me to create this page: The Vault:News, which aggregates all blog posts added to Category:News. It's possible to embed it on the main page as well, and with this The Vault could become a good news source as well. Anyone can add post news by adding their blog posts to the News category, but silly news posts will of course be deleted.
I proposed proposing making a separate news functionality based on this code in the Central Wikia forum, though, with a separate News: namespace. But for now, the blogs can be pretty neat for that as well. Ausir 23:21, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
