There has never been 'accepted' suggestions, only 'community endorsed' ones. We never got any information on which suggestions ended up on any list kept by the mod team, and that is not changing nor expected to change. As of 1/1/2019 we will simply no longer have the 'community endorsed' status as far as I'm concerned. The Suggestions forum board as-is today will continue to be used for its original purpose, but there will not be a process attached to filter out the crap from the useful entries and there will not be a distinction between 'community endorsed' suggestions and others. There is also no longer a moderator-run mechanic that tags suggestions as 'expired', closes them and moves them to the archive. Much of the moderation for this now-disbanded system was done by me personally, hence my thousands of 'edits' on this Wiki. But as both this doesn't seem to make any difference for the mod team and the entire exercise has become utterly useless anyway because of the ever decreasing return on investment, I decided to end it. What other Wiki staff will do with the Suggestions forum and the way to deal with suggestions in the future is beyond the scope of this thread. They can do as they please. I will not be involved.
