When we checked to see who would be available to take screenshots that week, I said I would be available and had the ability to, so we had decided I would do it for that episode. Grif had been previously unable to take screenshots due to real life.

As for Grif's inactivity:

I will not disclose details, however by speaking with Grif directly I have determined that due to real life circumstances related to his work, his time and ability to contribute to the wiki is heavily limited. We're not judging Grif's inactivity strictly on a basis of what he does on the wiki and how often. He has told us multiple times that work tends to leave him unavailable and unable to help out, and Phantomlink even discussed this with him prior to the denomination being put into motion.

Similarly, Maki stepped down due to inactivity after several months of clearly expressing to us that he was unavailable due to real life circumstances.

As for the big edits being handled "in secrecy behind closed doors", it's more like we tend to collab a lot of the big edits over Google Documents in order to avoid edit conflicts and for more efficiency. We have been making an effort to ask the community what they think about ideas for big edits, such as new pages, new page types, layout changes on pages, etc. and when a community member suggests an idea, we check it out, discuss it, weigh in, and want to see what the rest of the community thinks.
