* Keep the name. Moving creates disruption in many places, and for years. If someone likes index.wiki, let them reserve it and redirect it here. Stats will then show what is attracting traffic, so ''maybe'' later it could be moved, but I doubt we will want it. Index.wiki might be ''slightly'' easier to remember, but L. is right, the implication is confusing. Wikindex is a wiki about wikis, and specifically an index of them, so if the wiki TLD were to be used, it would better be wikiindex.wiki. ".org" works just fine. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 00:37, 14 March 2015 (UTC) | * Keep the name. Moving creates disruption in many places, and for years.

* Stay here. Really the move as I see it does nothing to add to the site. If it is a question of having other TLDs, then why not just redirect to the main one?

* This is probably wise if for no other reason than about a decade of incoming links. There must be a way to use HTTP to redirect one domain to the other. '''If''' we can assure that all incoming links will work '''and''' that our SEO rankings and search indexing, etc. will work properly, then please do move it to index.wiki.
