Qualitipedia and the Original Reception Wikis (2019-present)

Qualitipedia (commonly known as the Miraheze Reception Wikis) was a network of eight reception wikis that criticized or praised various forms of media. Despite the common name, they were actually created on FANDOM back in 2013, with the first wiki being Crappy Games Wiki, created by Grust (formerly known as DisneyVillain). Afterward, other wikis were created, such as Awesome Games Wiki, Terrible TV Shows Wiki, Greatest Movies Wiki, and Awful Movies Wiki, before being forced to move to Miraheze in September 2018 because of a user named PKMNLivesNew. Qualitipedia was shut down on September 26, 2022, following a successful RfC. However, a long time reader named Fred decided to revive them independently, making him the new owner of Qualitipedia. The wikis were on hold for a while as he tried to fix a CentralAuth issue before going down entirely. Afterward, a revival of Qualitipedia was created on an obscure wiki hosting service named Telepedia.

Overall

 * 1) Ever since PKMNLivesNew caused the shut down of the wikis and caused them to move on Miraheze, the network suffered from multiple controversies that permanently damaged their reputation until its closure.
 * 2) Although some pages are well-written (mostly the featured articles but there are some well-written pages without the featured template), most of the pages are extremely poorly-written, especially on Terrible Shows & Episodes Wiki, as the pointers are overall short and vague.
 * 3) *Even if they're well-written, some of the pages are hilariously bad, especially the ones made during The Outcast Network era.
 * 4) The network's (along with other reception wikis') community is very immature and toxic.
 * 5) One of the main reasons why the network went downhill is because since Grust was an anti-SJW and right-wing, the entire network was anti-SJW who treated SJWs as outright criminals. They also criminalized anti-GamerGate supporters. This was one of the main reasons why Rotten Websites Wiki was despised, because the wiki was nothing but a political mess, as it constantly bashes everything that's "SJW" or left-leaning.
 * 6) *Qualitipedia's pro-GamerGate attitude made the wikis look even more biased.
 * 7) *It should be also noted that it's not hard to get brainwashed from their Anti-SJW belief, as they can convince an average user to become an Anti-SJW or pro-Gamergate thanks to their pages.
 * 8) Speaking of bias, it's worth noting that the network itself was biased. Games, TV shows, and movies wikis have been infamous mainly because of bias, especially in the average media, where, for example, on the Crappy Games Wiki, a majority of the pages in this category were literally biased to a greater or lesser degree.
 * 9) Overall, due to toxicity as well as a declining userbase, Qualitipedia shut down on a sour note 9 years after its first inception on FANDOM.

The Outcast Network era (2019-2020)

 * 1) When the wikis moved to Miraheze, The Outcast Network decided to take over them and are largely considered to be one of the worst groups in Qualitipedia's history, as they have a long history of causing drama, handling their wikis such as Atrocious YouTubers Wiki, Horrible Vyonders Wiki and so on, as well being responsible for the downfall of Qualitipedia.
 * 2) *The group itself has proven to be an irresponsible one, as when they handled the wikis, one of the worst cases of doxxing happened. On March 2019, an used named Zenko (now called Vos) joined in the wikis and wanted to contribute peacefully without causing drama. However, she was falsely accused of being depraved, which is a lie, and the drama she went into was the fault of an user, who wouldn't stop annoying her. And then, one of the users made a page of Zenko in Fun Shitposting Wiki, a satirical page mocking her, in the same vein of Encyclopedia Dramatica. However, Zenko vandalized it because it contained her personal info. In other words, they doxxed her just for the sake of satirical stuff. Despite being in the right doing that, Zenko was later unfairly hated and not only The Outcast Network refused to support her, but one of the members, hated her and was added on the dreaded Unfavourable Wikis and Users Wiki. In 2022, SuperStreetKombat told that there are rumors that Zenko committed suicide but thankfully it was debunked to be untrue.
 * 3) They once featured a small YouTuber on Atrocious YouTubers Wiki just because they made a poorly-written page of another bad small YouTuber on Amazing YouTubers Wiki. Thankfully, it was later replaced by other bad YouTubers that were more popular.
 * 4) Some pages, although are well-written, are downright awful or just mediocre, not only because they lack sources, but the claims are also unsubstantiated. Some of the claims in said pages are even false. Examples include:
 * 5) *Atrocious YouTubers Wiki:
 * 6) **MrBeast (2012-2016)
 * 7) **ElectricDragon505 (AniMat) (2016-Present) (imported on Rotten Websites Wiki titled Mat Brunet (2016-present) )
 * 8) **Vailskibum94 (2016-2019) (imported on Terrible TV Shows Wiki)
 * 9) **IULITMx (imported on Crappy Games Wiki)
 * 10) *Toxic Fandoms & Hatedoms Wiki:
 * 11) **Animal Crossing Fandom
 * 12) **Sonic.EXE Fandom
 * 13) **Luigi's Mansion Fandom
 * 14) They even had the courage of featuring a page criticizing MrBeast during his first years on Atrocious YouTubers Wiki despite being one of the most popular and greatest YouTubers of all time. The page itself is also biased and poorly-written, so much that it makes you wonder why it got featured in the first place.

Post-Outcast Network era (2020-2021)

 * 1) Despite the closure of The Outcast Network's wikis and their ban, most of the users still imported the pages in other wikis. This was more evident in Rotten Websites Wiki, as a lot of pages from wikis like Atrocious YouTubers were imported, with very little changes.
 * 2) The infamous Celebtards and Celebsmarts pages. No words can describe how awful these pages are.
 * 3) During this era, the wikis have been rebranded into one network called Qualitipedia, and revealed that it would be more serious than something for fun. This alone caused many people like Portrock1566 to leave the network for good, as they felt that it lost the charm.
 * 4) Speaking of the rebrand, to officially form this, Allistayrian, a former admin of the network, decided to do what was called the Great Purge, which was essentially when all pages were purged. This received universal backlash and many people retired.

DuchessTheSponge era (2021)

 * 1) Ever since DuchessTheSponge became the new owner of Qualitipedia, he attempted many ways to improve the network, but those ways failed miserably due to numerous reasons
 * 2) *He caused some infamous opinion wars, a good example being the Spongebob page on TTS&EW.
 * 3) *And finally, the most infamous case was the unexpected shut down of the Websites Wiki in June 2021. After users asked what happened to those wikis, it was discovered that DuchessTheSponge shut them down, and as a result, he got demoted.
 * 4) *During this era on Qualitipedia, he made a few false accusations of some users such as Grust of being a pedophile after creating an NSFW blog about hentai, which resulted in Grust's retirement, and he also banned SuperStreetKombat from SephSpace for supposedly "defending the no custom heading rule", restoring the YouTube page on Rotten Websites, and removing Nintendo from Crappy Games Wiki's forbidden list, which also resulted in SSK leaving Miraheze for a while until he came back two weeks later.
 * 5) *He was also responsible for custom headers that added absolutely nothing to the pages and only caused drama and edit wars, which made them banned many times, although for some reason their ban was revoked.
 * 6) These ways also became pointless once TigerBlazer and Raidarr arrived, as they gave better ways to improve Qualitipedia, despite still failing.
 * 7) He was one of the biggest responsible for shutting down Qualitipedia due to his disastrous administration, actually for this reason after he wrongly accused Grust of pedophilia and SuperStreetKombat of the things listed above no one even wanted him to be part of the staff anymore.

Allistayrian era (2020-2022)

 * 1) Allistayrian was an overall strict admin with insanely high standards, who would delete every page she would consider poorly-written, even if said pages are actually decent, especially from January to April 2021. After returning to Qualitipedia in June 2021, however, she has improved and undeleted most of the decent pages.
 * 2) She also had a tendency to block users for doing things that annoyed her, such as blocking Szczypak2005 just because he split a page.
 * 3) She was also partially responsible for the creation of the "Good articles" template, which was completely useless and added nothing to a page since it was almost the same as the "Featured" article.

The Final Months (2022)

 * 1) Ever since Allistayrian retired, a lot of drama happened that severely killed Qualitipedia.
 * 2) Certain admins had been secretly attempted to kill Qualitipedia, with no new idea of improvement and barely any support.
 * 3) On August 2022, in the Qualitipedia Discord server, a massive bombshell arrived; there was an obnoxious chat that was caused by a bot created by a former admin of the network, where everybody lost control of themselves and ended up nonsensically spamming in the chat after the bot ghostpinged everyone. As a result, TigerBlazer, a former admin of the network, snapped out from the Discord server and announced that they would be retiring for good, even though they already retired in April (before making a full retirement blog when the RfC to close Qualitipedia was open). After that happened, many people like Raidarr, Mr. Dready and Stephenfisher2001 retired, which not only saddened many people but it also led to damage control without the help of many useful admins.
 * 4) It was pretty clear that the network was getting desperate to stay alive, as they promoted a bunch of moderators after a lot of admins retired, which failed miserably.
 * 5) In October 2022, one of the users of Miraheze created an RfC after Stewards rejected the creations of newer reception wikis, in which he asks to ban Reception Wikis with 3 proposals. The first asks to close all the reception wikis, the second asked to keep the reception wikis while forbidding others from being created indefinitely, the last is the same as the second but instead of indefinitely, it's 6 months. The first proposal failed, while the second was succesful, so while the open reception wikis still remain open, other reception wikis can't be created, so this prevents from creating a reboot on Miraheze, and also sealing Qualitipedia's fate as dead.
 * 6) They unjustly revoked SuperStreetKombat's admin status after promoting a few users to mods with "no consensus", even though there actually was one, and this agreement to demote him took place in a Discord without Street's knowledge about, which was deragetory considering that he still has yet to have an account there, and they could have just warned him to stop rather than privately discuss demoting him without warning.

The New Reception Wiki (2022)

 * 1) Some of the rules are very questionable. The forbidden pages heading says that the pages from Qualitipedia shouldn't be copypasted, but rather, imported with all revisions, which doesn't make sense because people barely use revisions, and Wayback Machine also exists, which makes them even more pointless.
 * 2) *Hypocrisy: The main admin was concerned that copying pages from these wikis would result in a loss of history, despite the fact that he himself has added a delete template to pages on a number of occasions because he wants to redo the pages, and simply deleting a page will obviously lose the history.
 * 3) One of the admins on this wiki was quite harsh towards people who hated Qualitipedia as he banned TigerBlazer because they complained about the existence of this wiki and did absolutely nothing on it.
 * 4) The wiki was laughably closed a few days after it was announced that it would have been a successor to Qualitipedia, which makes sense, since the wiki violated the Content Policy in the first day.
 * 5) *The most laughable yet insulting thing at the same time, the main admin of this wiki said that because forks are not allowed, he asked regular users to delete the pages, which not only doesn't make sense, since regular users don't have the ability to do that, as well announcing this when the wiki was closed, but it also shows that he refuses to take any responsibility for that.

Self-Hosted Qualitipedia (2022)

 * 1) Because the wikis lacked CentralAuth, some users had trouble signing to their accounts.
 * 2) The servers are horrible, as they can get easily disconnected out of nowhere.
 * 3) *The wikis were closed out of nowhere, they show nothing but a Cloudflare issue.

New Qualitipedia (2022-present)

 * 1) A lot of users reported to be wrongfully banned indefinitely due to the Abuse filter being poorly implemented and ban indefinitely whoever puts inappropriate language, even when certain words are not inappropriate at all. Thankfully, Original Authority, the owner of Telepedia, fixed a bit the filter and unbanned those who were unfairly banned.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) It used to be good back when it was on FANDOM and during its first months on Miraheze in 2018.
 * 2) There are still plenty pages on the network's wikis that were well-written or a lot of people can agree on them (despite some of them being deleted), such as:
 * 3) *Terrible Shows & Episodes Wiki:
 * 4) **The Loud House (season 4-present)
 * 5) **Family Guy (season 8-present)
 * 6) **13 Reasons Why
 * 7) **Ren and Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon"
 * 8) **Tomorrow's Pioneers (despite being a bit right-wing)
 * 9) *Crappy Games Wiki
 * 10) **Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition
 * 11) **Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)
 * 12) **Action 52
 * 13) **Balan Wonderworld
 * 14) *Awesome Games Wiki
 * 15) **Mario Forever
 * 16) **Super Mario Bros.
 * 17) **Fallout: New Vegas
 * 18) **Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville
 * 19) *Awful Movies Wiki:
 * 20) **The Smurfs
 * 21) **Cuties (despite once having redeeming qualities on the page)
 * 22) **Leaving Neverland
 * 23) *Greatest Movies Wiki:
 * 24) **2001: A Space Odyssey
 * 25) *Rotten Websites Wiki
 * 26) **Twitter
 * 27) **YouTube (2017-present)
 * 28) **Common Sense Media
 * 29) *In fact, even some of the pages during The Outcast Network era are great as well!
 * 30) **Atrocious YouTubers Wiki
 * 31) ***Strawberry Milk (which essentially is also a warning to people that there's a degenerate user around the internet)
 * 32) ***ImJayStation
 * 33) ***Peluchin Entertainment
 * 34) ***Cosmodore
 * 35) **Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki
 * 36) ***Weeaboos and Koreaboos
 * 37) ***K-Pop Fandom and Hatedom
 * 38) ***COVID-19/Coronavirus Deniers
 * 39) ***Kink Shaming
 * 40) ***LGBT Hatedom (Homophobia) and Heterosexuality Hatedom (Heterophobia)
 * 41) ***Stereotyping
 * 42) ***Pedophiles
 * 43) The network's wikis which were about praising or criticizing pieces of media and why they got praised/criticized definitely sounds like a good idea on paper, though was unfortunately poorly executed and plagued with a toxic community.
 * 44) While the community is incredibly toxic as mentioned in WISN#4, there are also a lot of good users here, even if they did make some controversial decisions, although most of them either retired, became inactive, were about to leave the site.
 * 45) They created a system called the Source Reliability-O-Meter, which consists of which source is much more reliable to use when creating a page, which is pretty neat, considering gaming journalism has become pretty corrupt and some internet reviewers are extremely unreliable.
 * 46) They were in full support of Vic Mignogna in his innocence after he was falsely accused of sexual misconduct by the voice actors at Funimation, and most of the QP users were pro-IStandWithVic.
