My take on some of these points, I may cover more of them when I have the energy.

1C Lack of Past Tense
I don’t see how using present tense would be inappropriate just because we have more than one game now. This simply strikes me as un unnecessary change.

1D Lack of English punctuation
The rule about British punctuation was introduced fairly late and it seems no one went back and changed it in articles already written. I’m definitely in favour of British punctuation though, it makes more sense than American.

I also wasn’t aware of this issue until now and I don’t think the fact that a lot of articles fail to abide by this rule should count against it in this discussion. You can’t fix a problem you’re unaware of but now that I know about it I’m quite willing and able to amend it throughout the wiki. But I’m holding off on doing so for now until the matter has been discussed.

(Btw, do we actually know that the majority of our visitors are from the US? I would find it interesting to see data on the traffic to the wiki but I didn't think we could see a lot about it apart from the number of total views per day.)

1E-F Use of ‘The’ in article titles and plural forms in article titles
Fair points, it might be prudent to add guidelines on how articles should be named.

1G Italicized article titles
Still against it as it looks dreadful while serving no purpose but to follow a convention. We already italicize things properly in-article, that is enough in my opinion.

1L Need for an Active Community
I don’t follow your argument here. It is true that we are a relatively small group (Just as we are a relatively small wiki!) but the community has only become more active as Dishonored 2 approaches and in the year I’ve been here I would never have called it wholly inactive, nor have I seen anything but a swift response to vandalism.

1M Unprofessional comment section
Of course wikipedia doesn’t have comment sections but we’re a video game wikia, that’s a whole other flavour of wiki. Comment sections are an easy way for readers to interact with the wiki and their lack would feel like a serious oversight. I’m not opposed to breathing some life into the forum though, poor thing sees less action than Granny Rags atm.

1O Need for an Updated Main Page
True enough, someone should update this.
