Besides the wiki is outdated. Auld Lang Syne is on there, haven't seen one in that guild in forever on Green. I wish they did exist however.
The one thing the forums had over the wiki is that when a guild stopped posting, their thread fell to the bottom of the list, so essentially the forum "self-cleaned" itself of dead guilds. But ... any player can remove a dead guild on the wiki in <30 seconds.

I'm guessing the forum admins put in several minutes a day on average policing the guilds forum, but even if was only 30 seconds/day on average ...

... that's a once-per-dead-guild cost of 30 seconds of player time vs. 30 seconds daily (and again, I suspect several minutes) of forum admin time, if we bring back the guild forum.

Nothing meaningful besides the fact that if someone wanted to they could just troll the wiki non stop and delete guilds and related info. Or the fact that some people just prefer forums over wikis and can provide a more up to date representation of currently active guilds and their statuses.
If someone does that anyone can go to the wiki history and revert the change. They can also tell me or another wiki admin, and we can wiki-ban the offender.
