User blog:Acebatonfan/Has the wiki's demographics changed?

Over the past few weeks, though I have been busy with my education, I noticed that there has been in more "immature" edits and page creations. As listed in my previous rant, NCU pages are still a huge issue, and it seems like the issue is growing exponentially. With what seems like a shift in policies for dealing with NCU pages (from automatically deleting it to now moving it to the userpage domain), and even the quality of these pages is absolutely horrid. I feel like this has decreased the sense of professionalism within the wiki, particularly when some users are treating those userpage domain pages as another part of their userpage and filling it with, for lack of better working, useless junk and spamful images.

One of my larger concerns also includes the lack of total dedication to making an article the best that it can be. While looking at the recent activity, I notice more recently-created pages slopily put together, as it the user did not care about grammar, formatting, or content and rushed to get the page put onto the wiki. It feels like a lot of the more recent pages are being created by users under the age of 13, and older users are the ones who have to fix the mistakes that used to be consider unacceptable when creating a page (like severe spelling errors).

With PeterPeter5000's blog post on the wiki's declining users and the wiki's demographics, I am quite perplexed at how 40% of the wiki's users are under the age of 18, but the recent quality of very-recently created articles and NCU pages are hinting at an audience of 13-.
