 Well, we need to split this page. Marriland has been let go by the Curse company and the Marriland Forums are now the Azurilland Forums. [http://www.azurilland.com/forums/updates-and-announcements/azurilland-forums-updates/530421-azurilland-marriland-and-the-future-of-the] The Marriland name will still belong to Devin and he is planning to rebuild his site from scratch, but the forums are no longer his.

 :How and what is exactly going to happen? Is Marriland Forums going to become Azurilland Forums and Marriland Forums is going to disappear, than yes we should move this page, but if Marriland is going to continue to exist but as something else then we should just create that page (Azurilland Forums) and state here that the Forums have been moved there. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span>]][[User talk:Raltseye|<span style="color:#6890F0">e</span><span style="color:#6464FF">y</span><span style="color:#6890F0">e</span>]] 07:53, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
+::The forums and site are both now "Azurilland" owned by Curse, but Devin still owns "Marriland". Sometime in the future, he plans on creating another site called Marriland. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 11:14, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
+:::Due to recent events regarding the naming of the website and the general history of the website, there is no longer a need to split this article.

+== Severely Outdated ==
+This page is severely outdated as several things it mentions simply don't exist on the forums anymore. Adopt a Newbie was phased out years ago due to a lack of users coming into the forums and it misses the fact that we have left Curse and have rejoined Marriland. I updated the staff list a while ago, but that is like putting lipstick on a pig. Overall I feel the page needs an overhaul, but I'm very much inexperienced with Bulbapedia to feel like I'm capable of doing it. If anyone would like to help me, that'd be great.

+:Sorry, I'm not really familiar with forums either, so I definitely won't be of any help. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 03:25, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
+== Proposed clean up to meet standards ==
+I propose we eliminate large portions of this page in order to not just clean it up, but match it up to the style of the [[Serebii.net]] page, a similar sort of article on a fan website with a forum. The sections I propose eliminating include
+* The entire Services section. We do not need to mention the adopt a newbie and the team builder mention can be shifted in to the introductory paragraph.
+* Past staff. I really don't think we need this when other pages don't mention it. Plus, it's quite useless. We can't and won't ever get the full dates for most of these people anyway - it just seems like vanity for some of these people to keep them.
+* Oekaki. Irrelevant nowadays, and can be a brief mention that this used to be a service offered by Marriland.com in the history section.
+With this, I do think that this will be streamlined to the point of the page being useful and it can be spruced up to Bulbapedia's standards a lot easier. --[[User:InfernoPlato|InfernoPlato]] ([[User talk:InfernoPlato|talk]]) 17:43, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
