== Description ==
{{see also|Minecraft Wiki (website)}}
The '''Minecraft Wiki''' is a public and editable website that is managed and maintained by a [[Special:ActiveUsers|massive group]] of contributors from the Minecraft community and the wiki's [[Minecraft Wiki:Admin noticeboard|administration team]].

The wiki was founded by Citricsquid on June 17th, 2009, as a way to document information from ''Minecraft''. From November 15th, 2010, it was hosted by Curse Media; first as a standalone wiki, and later as a part of Gamepedia. As Fandom purchased Curse Media on December 12th, 2018, the wiki also transferred ownership to Fandom, first remaining under the Gamepedia umbrella until all Gamepedia wikis eventually became part of the Fandom wiki platform. On September 24th, 2023, the wiki [[MCW:Moving from Fandom|forked from Fandom]] and is since hosted by [[wg:|Weird Gloop]]. To learn more about the wiki's history, see also [[Minecraft Wiki:History]].

The wiki is powered by the open source and free [[mediawikiwiki:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] wiki software. ''Minecraft'' content and materials are trademarks and copyrights of [[Mojang Studios]].
