The New Reception Wiki

Not to be confused with the 2022 revival of the wiki

The New Reception Wiki (renamed RIP TNRW after closure) was a reception wiki hosted on Miraheze. Intended to compete with Qualitipedia and other reception wikis, it was founded by Maddox121 on February 25, 2020; it was closed in October 2021 because Maddox lost interest in moderating the wiki.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) It was created solely because the founder, Maddox121, was blocked from several Qualitipedia wikis, and the wiki was basically a rip-off of Qualitipedia.
 * 2) Multiple pages had quite a few unsourced claims:
 * 3) *Qualitipedia and The Original Reception Wikis (2019-present)
 * 4) *The Outcast Network (mainly the "Why It Was an Outcast" section)
 * 5) *The Fandoms & Hatedoms Wiki Database
 * 6) *The Character Reception Wikis
 * 7) *Heroes and Villains Wiki
 * 8) Some pages were outright copies of pages on Qualitipedia wikis without any sort of attribution, which violates Miraheze's Content Policy.
 * 9) The wiki lists the character Bunga from The Lion Guard being a likable and good character as a "stupid lie" in the List of Stupid Lies About Fictional Characters page, even though it is just an opinion, even if a questionable one.
 * 10) Some of the admins can get really worked up over very minor inconveniences. For example, when SuperStreetKombat made a simple observation about the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate page having a toxic fanbase as a quality, which is apparently allowed on TNRW unlike Qualitipedia, but VosVosKitsune, one of the admins, got really upset with Street thinking that he was "trying to stir up drama", even though he actually wasn't, and even deleted his comment multiple times.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The wiki was a useful alternative to Controversial Wikis & Users Wiki, Unfavorable Wikis and Users Wiki, and Tiresome Wikis Wiki back when it was still around, since the former two were eventually closed and the latter was filled with vandalism at the time of the New Reception Wiki's closure, and the New Reception Wiki had several pages criticising wikis mentioned on BQ#2.
 * 2) In addition to above, the wiki was useful for criticising reception wikis that are also mentioned on BQ#2, along with several blogs.
 * 3) Some good pages, such as the page on Qualitipedia and the original reception wikis (despite its flaws).

Criticism and legacy
The New Reception Wiki was initially criticised by supporters of reception wikis via its page on Unfavorable Wikis and Users Wiki. However, it later became more accepted by Qualitipedia users when they started looking for ways to improve the wikis, and decided to start listening to the criticism towards Qualitipedia on the wiki, specifically its blogs. As a result of this, several users were disappointed with the New Reception Wiki's closure despite its flaws.

Furthermore, a reboot of the wiki was founded by Money12123 on July 24, 2022. Following the closure of Qualitipedia on September 27, 2022, Money12123 announced that the wiki would become Qualitipedia's successor; however, the wiki was closed later that month.
