What video games have high quality fan-made wiki pages?

I have been playing a lot of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral and memorizing what each character likes can be a bit daunting at times so I use it a lot. It also helps when you are trying to figure out certain character’s schedule and where specific items are found.

Lots of pages also go the extra mile and include a trivia section and a list of bugs.

It makes me wonder which other fan-made wiki’s are of impressive quality or even just which other wiki’s people have used.

I imagine Stardew Valley and Pokemon have some really good ones.

Factorio and Dwarf Fortress both have great wikis IMO.

HeckGazer,

OSRS has hands down the best wiki of any game I have ever encountered

What does OSRS stand for?

NakariLexfortaine,

Old School RuneScape, the version thats built on an older version of the game.

There’s also RS3, the more modern version that includes micro transactions.

minibyte,

You’d be better off ignoring the existence of RS3 altogether.

Why is that?

Piwix,

Its like the problem cousin. Biggest criticisms are the pay to win nature, inconsistent art style, and UI bloat. OSRS is basically the second chance to make things right and largely achieved this in every way (no p2w, simple at its core complex in its capabilities, community polling for new content). Everything that RS3 did wrong was a learning experience for Jagex. Not to say RS3 can’t be fun for people

i like this but i dont feel like grinding everything again

swunchy,

The wealth of information on the wiki actually improves the game so much. Especially since they moved off of the shitty fandom site

Nanomerce,

Warframe and Minecraft wiki comes to mind

Minecraft has a decent wiki IIRC. I remember learning a lot about Redstone and circuits there.

bionicjoey,

Dorf Fortress

brsrklf,

Definitely. And absolutely needed too.

baatliwala,

Doom wiki is great

Warframe, the wiki is essential to play that game for any length of time.

SolOrion,

Yeah, the wiki is absolutely required for Warframe.

Thade780,

The Fallout wiki is incredible.

Link, fallout.wiki/wiki/Fallout_Wiki

CorrodedCranium,
@CorrodedCranium@leminal.space avatar

Oh yeah I used to browse that one a lot because I was curious about the world outside of what we see in-game. At the time there were some errors like a character being said listed as Australian because one other character said they were going to put them “down under” and stuff being miss-cited because of material like Fallout Extreme and the Fallout Bible but it seems like it got a lot better since then

sugar_in_your_tea,

Europa Universalis IV in particular, and Paradox games in general.

For Dyson Sphere Program, you have to dig for this one below all the gross Fandom links:

UESP is amazing for everything Elder Scrolls, especially if you’re looking to go down a lore rabbit hole.

Skua,

Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages is outstanding. Packed full of every bit of info you could hope for, clearly delineates different types of content, thoroughly referenced, and doesn't run like shit like every Wikia wiki does
