From Tiresome Wikis Wiki

As of today, ShoutWiki has upgraded to MediaWiki 1.35. This means that its wiki creator will come back up soon (currently, it's limited to Staff only), and Creative Wikis Wiki will finally move here, to the same wiki farm as its sister wiki (this wiki).

If you don't know what Creative Wikis Wiki is, it's a reception wiki praising good wikis and users. Here's a timeline of Creative Wikis Wiki's history so far:

  • August 2022: Money12123 (then known as FatBurn0000) creates a thread on Miraheze's stewards' noticeboard about reviving a wiki named Incredible Wikis and Users Wiki.
  • September 2022: A discussion was created on this wiki about having a sister wiki (link); meanwhile, FatBurn decides to name the IW&UW revival "Creative Wikis Wiki".
  • October 2022: On Miraheze, an RfC passed that banned the creation of new reception wikis for an indefinite period of time.
  • December 2022: Creaive Wikis Wiki is created on EditThis.info, due to the release of MediaWiki 1.39 and the possibility that ShoutWiki's wiki creator would remain offline for even longer than it already had been at that point.
  • February 2023: Creative Wikis Wiki is migrated to ByetHost, due to the limitations of EditThis.info.

I'm very excited about Creative Wikis Wiki moving to ShoutWiki, because it means the end of an era in Creative Wikis Wiki's history and the beginning of a new one. Here's to CWW's bright future! Tali64^2 (talk) 12:59, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
