Wowpedia is a wiki about the ''Warcraft'' fictional universe. It covers all of the ''Warcraft'' games, including the MMORPG ''World of Warcraft''.

It was officially announced on 25 October 2010.

WoWWiki
The WoWWiki or World of Warcraft Wiki was a wiki about the ''Warcraft'' fictional universe, and one of the largest wikis about a specific subject. It began as an independent project in November 2004, and in 2007 joined Wikia. In late 2010, most of the administrators that were unhappy with Wikia-mandated changes started an independent fork known as Wowpedia. In May 2020, WoWWiki was archived and the wiki's userbase was merged into the much more active Wowpedia, somewhat reuniting the two communities once again. History WoWWiki.com was launched on November 24, 2004, the day after the release of ''World of Warcraft'' (WoW), as a source of information pertaining to ''WoW'' and the interface modification suite Cosmos. The wiki later expanded to cover the entirety of the Warcraft universe, including RTS games, novels, RPG reference books, manga, and other written sources, along with the ''WoW'' expansion packs. At various points in its development history, it was described as the "be ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
