Do we need to still maintain this? I don't think anyone at this point uses the regular chat feature, despite it being linked on the main page. [[User:Super Mario RPG|Super Mario RPG]] ([[User talk:Super Mario RPG|talk]]) 18:13, December 27, 2024 (EST)

::Okay quick trip back. Found out that this edit[https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&diff=2653461&oldid=2153620] effectively replaced Wiki Chat with Discord, so I do think it's not controversial to assume that it should apply to the front page. I do think ''maybe'' it should be linked somewhere just for accessibilty's sake, but I can't say it should be given same prominence as our other links on the front page, which all the rest are still relevant. {{User:Mario/sig}} 19:22, December 27, 2024 (EST)

:::Contacted the chat operators on our Discord channel. They responded that the irc feature has been largely abandoned, with few, if any users using it. This is on top of on the mibbit client, which MarioWiki's irc relied on, being discontinued back in August 2024, which probably is the metaphorical writing on the wall for this. Suffice to say, I don't think it requires much more maintenance, and it's been agreed that chat can be removed as a link to the front page. {{User:Mario/sig}} 21:15, December 27, 2024 (EST)
