Henceforth, I will be represented by Blossomforth

Hello, everyone. Amelia here.

As it was recently announced, Miraheze, our hosting provider, will be shutting down. This was alluded too before, but there was inconsistent messages by Miraheze staff and insiders over the severity of the situation. Thankfully, we should have enough time to look for new hosting providers but it really does sadden me that the era of wiki hosting seems to be dying, with only a few for-profit ventures left and very few in the ways of open, non-profit ones.

As said before, Equestripedia will absolutely not be going anywhere. We already have been offered free hosting at another service but I'm weighing my options and will get in contact with the people who host our domain name for their word on the manner. Who knows, maybe this'll serve as a much needed revival this wiki needed.

I think, in the mean time, I will give our wiki a much needed refinement, in making sure the coding for templates are consistent and offering light-and-dark theme options, instead of a single dark theme.
