Hi,

The reason why https://www.redfactionwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page was chosen to remain on the PCGW pages over https://www.factionfiles.com/ff.php?action=forums was simply due to it being the most useful one overall.

The Red Faction Wiki main page features the community Discord server, Faction Files, and even the game-specific FAQs all prominently on the very first page. Meanwhile the Faction Files link goes to an archived forum overview with the latest posts from years ago. Not even the root of the Faction Files website, https://www.factionfiles.com/, is a really good replacement since there's no clear intent or path "forward" from there.

We generally do not allow invite links for unofficial Discord servers for various reasons too long to go into here, so that link isn't really up for debate.

Ergo, the Red Faction Wiki main page that was allowed to remain was the best option as it achieves multiple purposes:

✓ It features game-specific FAQs on the first page. ✓ It acts as a convenient hub for the remaining removed links as it features them quite prominently (except the Wikia link, I guess) ✓ It doesn't put any additional requirement on the user to access information (e.g. a Discord account).

Br, Aemony
