Response to Banana Fish affiliation request
Hi there,

As you may have guessed by the lack of an affiliation template on our homepage, the Baccano! Wiki has not affiliated with other wikis in recent memory (if ever). This doesn't mean I'm outright opposed to the idea; however, if the Baccano! Wiki is going to affiliate with anyone, I would prefer that it first affiliate with the other Naritaverse wikis.

As I am the sole sysop of the Vamp! and Etsusa Bridge wikis (which have no discernable editing community at the moment), I can speak for those wikis on this matter. However, Durarara!! Wiki has its own editing community and admin who I am on good terms with and frequently collaborate with: as of just a few minutes ago, they've opened up discussion as to whether or not they're open to affiliations themselves.

(I may also post in our own wikitext Forums about this, though the amount of active, regular contributors here is scant.)

If the outcome of their Discussion is favorable to affiliation and the Naritaverse wikis all affiliate, I'll certainly revisit your request. I notice you didn't provide a reason for your interest; I don't want to put words in your mouth, but should I assume it's due to setting similarities (e.g. NYC backdrop, mafia involvement)? In other words, why does the Banana Fish Wiki want to affiliate with us, and why should we?

Looking into your activity on other wikis, I can see you've been reaching out to quite a few wikis with affiliation requests as of late. If you would kindly allow my side of things a little time before coming to a decision, I'd greatly appreciate your understanding.
