Wowwiki is gone, Reduced to ashes

Merged with Wowpedia.

Sign of the times man

Considering they were often outdated or just a copy/paste of wowpedia it’s not surprising to me.

Ashes to ashes,
Dust to dust.

Good riddance to Wowwiki,
That inaccurate corpse filled with rot and puss.

Wowiki has been outdated for years,Wowpedia was always the more accurate of the two IMO.

I got plenty of lore from WoWwiki

Guess that was all wrong

Did no one tell you to use WoWPedia?

Not all, but WoWWiki was notorious for outdated articles, or articles that had been editing to be wrong. There were even some pages people had made that were made up stuff entirely.

Lol no I just pressed the first thing that came up :woozy_face:

What was that website you used to have to use to look up quests for WoW back in the day before quests had pointers taking you to them

Thotbot or something I can’t remember

Wowpedia originally sprung up because of the major Wikia redesign that negatively impacted WoWWiki; Wikia’s ad policy at the time was also allowing malicious ads to be presented on wiki pages for WoW which was another uncool thing. I’ve been using Wowpedia pretty much since its inception.

Fun fact: Prior to classic if you went to Thottbot. com you’d be redirected to wowhead, now you’re redirected to wowheads classic side
