Garbage Memes Wiki was an attempt at creating a reception wiki that focused on bad memes but was known for poor quality control and a thin-skinned and rude userbase. The wiki was created on May 1, 2019 by OldDirtyFoamer, but was closed by July 2020.[1]
Why It Was Cringe and Unfunny
- The idea of making a wiki criticizing memes is downright ridiculous, anti-free speech, nonsensical and questionable, since memes are not meant to be taken seriously and that they come off as way too one-dimensional to be criticized anyways.
- The wiki was obviously nothing but cancel culture, this wiki seemed to be obviously anti-free speech and anti-meme at the same time, making this a Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms wiki rip-off.
- Poor Administration: The wiki admins were not active during its downfall and didn't do anything to prevent it from shutting down, similar to the original Shoutwiki version of Weirdcyclopedia.
- For example, a user named Desanta69 spammed and blanked pages for a while.[citation needed]
- The categories were lame, horrible, trashy and poor (Memes That Should Get Banned,[2] Viruses[citation needed], Memes That Are Meant To Be Funny But They're Actually NOT[citation needed]), and they put categories on pages that don't fit the category (Calliou Memes as "offensive," for example).[citation needed]
- They labeled a lot of things "racist" too. One user put Ugandan Knuckles only because the name had "Uganda" in it, which is ironic because the same person called Iran and Iraq "terrorist countries".[citation needed]
- The pages wwre terribly written and used immature phrases.
Redeeming Qualities
- Certain Memes are deserving to be on this wiki (Such as COVID memes, 9/11 memes, You are going to Brazil memes and Adolf Hitler memes).
- Some of the users apologized for their behavior.[3][4]
