RuneScape Wiki - Leaving Wikia!!

Post by Cally Raven » Thu Sep 27, 2018 7:06 am

This was posted on Reddit yesterday. Something to be aware of if you use Runewiki a lot!


Here's the Thread Reddit post


Hey guys! We wanted to let you know the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape Wikis are currently planning on leaving Wikia. We’re discussing this with our editing community, and we’d hoped to keep that lowkey, but since people are (understandably) talking about it we want to explain it properly here.
We’ve had issues with Wikia for years now, and we’ve had a lot of Reddit threads and comments about how awful they are. For about 12 months, we’ve been talking with Jagex about how we can make the experience on the wiki better for everyone.
We’ll be providing more information about this on Reddit very soon, but in the meantime, you can read our thread on the wiki for a more in-depth explanation.

If you’d like to play around with our new sites, they’re accessible on https://runescape.wiki and https://oldschool.runescape.wiki. Be aware - these are not in sync with the current live wiki, and you can't edit them. Search functionality may be reduced as not all pages are indexed.
We are planning to launch officially (with up to date content) in the next week or so.

We appreciate all feedback, and that can be submitted here on Reddit or using the button at the top of every page. Bear in mind, things may not be completely stable at the moment - everything is a work in progress. If you have any questions, let us know. Thanks!

Bump, just a reminder the fandom wiki is now obsolete and not being updated anymore. :D
