Before the weekly updates (February 2015 onwards) we had a lot of communication issues between staff members and regular users. This led to a lot of tension between the groups and eventually some serious drama (see Consensus Track threads from 2013–14 in particular), several resignations, and the slowing of content addition to the wiki as a whole. We are still feeling the effects of this today, to an extent.

The updates weren't the only measures we took to improve things, but they were an important part of them. I understand that they may not be entirely relevant to you, but I would ask that you put up with them, because they do have a lot of short-term and long-term benefits to the wiki in general.
