Tuesday is a day to celebrate the broader wikiverse! Post links to wikis that you think others will find interesting! Some of my faves: Wookiepedia, Fallout/Elder Scrolls Wikis, Know Your Meme, TV Tropes, AARoads.

Please follow the typical posting rules here: format is

Title (editorialization)
NSFW wikis allowed as long as they're flagged as such,

Please only post true wikis! As in, using wiki software and collaboratively/iteratively edited.

Edit: feel free to post the links in the main community, not just here in the comments

Does Fandom count as a "true wiki"? The site is cancer but there's a lot of knowledge housed there, unfortunately.

yes, I think we can allow it. if the ads are too obnoxious, it will get downvoted, but I think we should still celebrate the contributions of users there, it's not their fault that an evil enshittifying company is holding their edits hostage
