We launched ''Your Archives'' in {{tag| | We launched ''Your Archives'' in {{tag|Founded in 2007|2007}}, with the intention of providing an online platform for users to contribute their {{tag|knowledge}} of {{tag|Archives|archival sources}} held by The National Archives and other archives throughout the {{tag|United Kingdom}}. In that time, over 31,000 people have registered and contributed or updated articles, there are over 21,000 articles and there have been almost 260,000 page edits, there have been over 6 million visits to the site with more than 50 million page views. | ||
However, online technologies have changed rapidly in that time, and the expectations of our users have also changed. Users expect to see information relating to {{tag|records}} in one place, whether the 'official' {{tag|catalogue}} description or detail added by another user. While the [[wiki]] format of ''Your Archives'' still very much has its place on the web, it doesn't fit with the seamless user experience that we want to provide. | However, online technologies have changed rapidly in that time, and the expectations of our users have also changed.
