#4 Other independent wikis besides NIWA 2 years ago

Comment by ~alex4401 on ~cadence/breezewiki-todo

Hello again,

There's been more wikis that moved from Fandom onto wiki.gg since I last listed them here. I'm tracking them at https://github.com/alex4401/wikigg-redirect-extension/blob/master/sites.json.

#4 Other independent wikis besides NIWA 2 years ago

~cadence Left a note in the wiki.gg Discord about this thread (I asked one of the staff prior to that and was told to do so).

For ARK: this will be probably slightly annoying, but whatever you write is fine. Our reasons (at the time of talking with Studio Wildcard regarding the move):

  • excessive or inappropriate advertisements,
  • Gamepedia platform features getting removed or restricted with no notice,
  • platform bugs remaining broken for extended periods of time,
  • things like quizzes and featured videos being enforced (happened after we moved, but we've been asked to help with creating some quizzes a few months ahead),
  • Gamepedia staff getting fired (= no support people who know how to work with the platform)
  • and my favourite: being unable to launch new translations anymore as "both platforms are on-par in terms of functionality" - took several months to sort out the Thai wiki and I'm not sure if that'd be possible again. By extent, this is also "poor prospects for ARK 2 wiki cause no Cargo [...]".

~alex4401 Hi, thanks for reaching out! Would you like to provide a short 1-2 paragraph blurb with background on your wiki (and optionally why/when it left Fandom) similar to the descriptions on https://www.niwanetwork.org/members/ ? If you do I'd be happy to add your words to the site, otherwise I'll put together something from the existing prose on your wiki's front page.

If you're able to reach out to the wiki.gg team to let them know about the BreezeWiki project and ask if they want a consistent wording for the redirection notice for all wiki.gg wikis, I'd REALLY appreciate that! You can either reply to this public thread or privately email cadence@disroot.org when you have a response. Stay cool.

ARK Wiki admin here: thank you for the tool but we'll gladly appreciate if a notice about our migration to wiki.gg will be added.

List above lacks a few more wikis as far as I can tell, so please also redirect to:
