History

wiki.gg was first launched with Terraria as the first wiki then grew partners with ARK, Undermine, Deadcells, Deep Rock Galatic. As wikis left and moved away from the [[Fandom] wiki hosting service platform. As wiki.gg grew, more wikis moved over to the platform like Hearthstone with over 200,000 articles and a month later Warcraft (formely called Wowpedia). Minecraft at first was wiki.gg first choice to move platform to, although Weird Gloop (Runscape Wiki) offered them a better deal [1]
