CotG's opinion matters when something is deemed feasible. If we could know in advance when something would be deemed unfeasible later on, we'd solve the problem, but also create a temporal paradox.

The suggestions system we have on the wiki is not a requirement for wikis. Fact is, it's something we (admins) felt would be a good change for the wiki, to give you (users) a proper place to make your suggestions and decide amongst yourselves what you feel is better for the wiki. If an admin determines a suggestion must be closed, for whatever reason, then he or she can close the suggestion without any input from anyone else. Your suggestion (and just for the record, I was referring to the other one regarding the unofficial spelling of one of Overflow's species and homeworld) was on a matter that had been settled long ago, so I closed it. I would've done the same if a suggestion regarding Celestialsapiens' omnipotence had come up.

Wikia's forum does not allow us to fine-tune reading/posting rights on the boards. The Announcements board, despite having in its description that only admins are allowed to post there, still has users who, from time to time, feel they should make threads there, for whatever reason. I don't want the flow of conversation to be interrupted by such users, and I certainly don't want to ban people for that. It's easier if conversations between admins are simply not visible to users. I'll add that this is the way it's done on a number of sites, for the reasons I pointed out.
