Many people have ideas, most even have decent ideas, but not everyone can express it clearly enough for viewers to read and understand succintly. Some people, including but not limited to younger and less mature users, even express their ideas without currect grammar, spelling, capitalisation, etc. Others just make a tower/bloon plain overpowered. These are many reasons why it is difficult for Bloons Wiki to accept and help promote an idea wiki &mdash; what is meant by an "official" ideas wiki.

The founder running an ideas wiki has to bear and take on the responsibility of addressing and resolving all these potential problems and conflicts that may occur at the wiki; they carry the burden alone, that is, until an administrative team is formed.

There are also many cases of "this user is editing my idea pages", as well as many different versions of bloon heirachy systems, bloon types, etc. My proposed solution to this problem would be, if there is an idea wiki, for categories to be added to a user's ideas e.g. User XX ideas. A template might also be designed and placed on the top of each page, signifying that the conception is theirs, and is original. I also noticed a blog on BCoW asking why the background theme is only of selected conceptions &mdash; this is a contraversial matter; it is fairer not to have a bunch of idea images that one user likes to make up the wallpaper.

There are problems with my suggestion, such as the wiki pages not integrating together sufficiently, but it's the only suggestion that I have. I found 2 grammar errors. I have found another spelling error.
