Forum:Pre-emptive Darwin adoption

Proposition
In time, the in-development Darwin wiki format will be deployed to all Wikia projects, including our League of Legends Wiki. I have contacted the Wikia Staff to see if we can be put onto the list of test wikis, and they have said they would be more than happy, and the next batch of Darwin deployments will be on 24 September 2013. This forum is intended to establish a consensus on whether we do want to make this pre-emptive change.
 * Synopsis

There are three primary changes that users will notice. For more information on Darwin, see Wikia Staff BertH's blog post.
 * What Darwin will change
 * 1) The sidebar will be reduced from 330 pixels to 300 pixels of width, giving the article space more room.
 * 2) The article space will widen on large monitors, expanding from 700 pixels to up to 1200 pixels of width.
 * 3) To adjust for these enlargements, the main font size on the wiki will increase from 13 pixels to 14 pixels.

In addition to having a personal fondness for the appearance of Darwin, I feel that it would benefit the wiki to be ahead of the curve as far as our aesthetic design goes, adjusting key elements (champion infoboxes, ability tables, item infoboxes, main page champion listing) to work seamlessly with the widened, fluid article space. Being as Darwin will eventually be deployed to all Wikia projects, I see no reason to delay. For those that are not fond of Darwin, our early testing gives us a unique opportunity to give Wikia feedback on what we dislike and would like to have changed, so we can help shape what it ultimately becomes.
