Get rid of Fandom wiki

[polygoners1]

fandom is garbage so change from "https://penguinmod.fandom.com/wiki/(page)_Wiki" to "https://penguinmod.wiki/(page)" pls! (ps: and stop updating the fandom)

[RedMan13]

Fandom sucks, but running a wiki can get expensive. For example: English Wikipedia alone hosts 134.8 GB of images(both bitmaps and SVGs). There's a reason why it takes most large wikis so long to move away from using Fandom, it's because when you're hosting something like a wiki, it gets very expensive very quickly. Why do you think Fandom is stuffed full of ads, and Wikipedia is consistently asking for donations: it's because it costs a lot to host something that's free, and that provides so much information.

..., or we can just use the github wiki feature, or put each wiki page on github

i already messaged the creator of the original wiki & they said eventually they will be able to move it keyword eventually because theres no real reason to urgently move

[JoshAtticus]

I recommend Miraheze, it's free and used by Meower, works pretty well, or ask @tnix100 to host a wiki maybe.

So like a community-wiki repository? Would it be on this org or have it's own? It would be possible, by the way. You'd need a wiki static site generator, but it could be done through GH Pages.

Using Docasaurus 3 would probably work really well, and it would do better in the long run

[nmsderp]

Plus, you could do wiki.penguinmod.com

[nmsderp]

Vercel also has a template for Docasaurus 2

[RedMan13]

we already have a docs page in the works rn...

[nmsderp]

Oh, I forgot about that, it is really good that you are doing that tho

Breeze wiki is Fandom but you cannot edit.

[Steve0Greatness]

Seems like some people in the Discord have forked the wiki to Mihaheze; Maybe keep an eye on that. It still seems to have some broken templates.

Maybe keep an eye on it, might be cool.

[Steve0Greatness]

This should be marked as completed. The wiki linked is now the Miraheze wiki.

will do
