[Campaigns-l] Chinese Campaign Wikia Help

[Chad Lupkes]

I agree, Kenny, and I don't know why this was changed.  The new domain
is actually campaigns.wikiachina.cn, and I was not informed when the
change happened, nor why.  I think it would be more appropriate as
zh.campaigns.wikia.com as well.

I'll see if Angela can shed some light on why this was changed.
