A long awaited day has finally arrived, Minecraft Wiki has moved from Fandom to https://minecraft.wiki.

We were able to bring a lot of improvements with this move including less ads, a new skin, faster load time and more.

Please visit https://minecraft.wiki/w/Minecraft_Wiki:Moving_from_Fandom for details why we've made this decision.

Soon we will also share how YOU can help entire Minecraft community reach forked wiki.

Thank you to everyone who have helped making this a reality. ❤️

Minecraft Wiki

Welcome to the most comprehensive wiki about the Minecraft franchise, proudly community-run since 2009. Anyone can contribute!

@MinecraftWikiEN mhhh doesn’t seem online? 👀
@voidedmain Oh? Can you share more details on your issue? We didn't get any other reports of wiki not working.

@MinecraftWikiEN works now!

before it just said server is not available (using Safari on iOS17).
Not sure what caused it but now I have access :3

@MinecraftWikiEN congratulations! 🎉
@nookipedia Thank you very much Nookipedia! It's certainly a historic event for us all.

@MinecraftWikiEN congratulations! Hopefully this paves the way for more wikis to become independent.

We have your back ❤️

@ftbwiki Awww, thank you FTB! We are rooting for you too! 
@freeplay Sorry to hear! It's very likely some servers have to catch up yet, we are shortly after release and it's very likely some DNS servers are a bit slower. Hopefully you can reach us soon, but if the problem persists, please let us know!
@MinecraftWikiEN 0 things blocked by ad block, and normal wiki UI!! How lovely!!!
@MinecraftWikiEN It's gorgeous!
@gmraphi Thank you for your kind words! We are glad you like it 
@MinecraftWikiEN Looks awesome! Is there any way to donate towards the hosting or administrative costs?
@chylex Hey!
We are really grateful you'd like to support wiki financially.
However this will not be possible for various reasons. Wiki will be hosted by Weird Gloop and ultimately financed by ads. But the fact you'd like to support our operation this way is really sweet, thank you!
@MinecraftWikiEN Any possibility of say, a premium account to not see ads? It'd be better if I could just pay more than those ads would ever make from my visits.

@chylex @MinecraftWikiEN
It's something we might want to add at some point in the future - but for now we're focusing on ads.

Ads are the more or less safe and reliable option - we'll establish that one first before exploring new/additional ones.

@chylex In addition to what violine have said, making an account and using it to visit the wiki completely removes all of the ads. Adding premium account in this scenario does not make much sense.
@MinecraftWikiEN nice! works great on my end, hope the dns propagates for everyone!
@MinecraftWikiEN Almost every reference to Minecraft Wiki on Wikipedia has now been updated to the new domain. (The only remaining one is a reference to Fandom removing the legacy Gamepedia skin).
@MJL Thank you for your help! 
@MJL @MinecraftWikiEN I wonder if the Minecraft Wiki would qualify for it's own Wikipedia article, like some other wikis.
@MarkusRost @MinecraftWikiEN It's certainly close to it. It's just lacking a bit more coverage for it to qualify under Wikipedia's notability standards.
@MinecraftWikiEN So glad the community managed to fork off Wikia finally <3
@MinecraftWikiEN It has been talked about in TangoTeks stream with 10 000 people watching. I've also just reached out to see if Zedaph could mention it somewhere.
@MinecraftWikiEN FYI the link in your profile still points to fandom
@wholegroanoats Hey! Do you mean Fediverse/Mastodon profile? Can you check it directly on our instance https://wikis.world/@MinecraftWikiEN? We have updated the links already but perhaps we've missed some or maybe they did not update yet on your instance, do let us know!

@MinecraftWikiEN yup! In the mastodon profile
@wholegroanoats Perhaps it is just cache on your instance side, we are not seeing any Fandom links.
@MinecraftWikiEN looks like it updated on my end, thank you!
@MinecraftWikiEN It loads so much faster now, it makes the fandom pages loading time look silly in comparaison!
@MinecraftWikiEN Ooooh, I've been waiting for this.  
Just in time to get back into the game.
@MinecraftWikiEN As a fellow wiki-runner (dni.wiki), congrats on flying solo! The theme looks great (I love that night mode sets the header to a starry view!)
@MinecraftWikiEN anything that moves content off Fandom is good in my book. Congrats!
@MinecraftWikiEN Another wiki leaves Fandom. How many already did it?
@MinecraftWikiEN @RLIBlog
https://wiki.gg/wikis/ would be a good place to start to get an estimate

@Calaifur @MinecraftWikiEN Years ago, Uncyclopedia (+ every language) and Wikidex left Fandom. I think there were some more, but I don't remember which ones.
@MinecraftWikiEN
I thought the Minecraft wiki was hosted by Curse?
@SwooshyCueb fandom acquired curse gamepedia back in 2018/19
@SwooshyCueb We used to be part of Gamepedia, which was owned by Curse, until Fandom bought Gamepedia in 2018 and ultimately unified it with the Fandom wiki platform.
@MinecraftWikiEN As another wiki that broke free of Fandom, we congratulate you on gaining independence!
@pandorastalewiki Thank you! Congrats on your move too! 
@MinecraftWikiEN you should tell duckduckgo to point their bangtag !minecraft to the fork. the takeover by wikia was hostile after all.
@kittenface Great idea! I just submitted some requests to change the bangs that lead to our wiki, let's see how it goes!
@MinecraftWikiEN YES MINECRAFT WIKI HAS MOVED!!!
@MinecraftWikiEN Oh hell yeah! I’m so glad. Fandom was an absolute trash fire, so I tended to just not look at the wiki. Thank you! I know it’s a massive undertaking to move a wiki.
