Generally:
- Guides do not get edited by other users. Yes, it is possible, but generally people have the courtesy not to.
- If people want to suggest changes, the talk pages make that easy and no one has to commit to anything.
- If someone makes problematic edits to a page, it is a simple task to revert the changes.
I would like to reiterate what was said previously.

BGwiki/FFXIclopedia likes to create multiple pages for content and already have their design in place.

If I were to edit BGwiki/clopedia as you seem to suggest, I would have to completely redesign their entire website.

For example, mission guides would be "guides" containing only the information needed, instead of how it is currently designed to be "informational" and contain all information such as the quest release date, game history, optional dialog NPC's and many many other features I will not like to include.

For you and other players to suggest I use these sites is a direct contradiction to their seemingly purposeful design choices.

Another example is creating a weapon such as Twashtar. They have like 25 pages on an item called "Twashtar" and my aim will be to include all information on a single page.

The forums or reddit would be the perfect site to create these guides that I aim to create.

Thank you for your suggestion though.

I will continue to utilize the forums and once I finish I will create posts to start to share it's existence.
