'''Nookipedia''', originally known as '''Animal Crossing Wiki''', is a wiki devoted to [[Nintendo|Nintendo's]] {{np|Animal Crossing (series)|Animal Crossing}} game series. It was formed from a merged of two separate wikis.


'''Nookipedia''' is a wiki devoted to the Animal Crossing series of games. It was originally two wikis, one independent, one hosted by Wikia. It was originally known as Animal Crossing Wiki until the name was changed on December 31, 2010 to Nookipedia.
==History==
The wiki was formed from a merger of two separate wikis.
 
The first wiki, Animal Crossing City, was originally founded on Wikia by Aeryka in August 2005.
 
The second wiki, Animal Crossing Wiki, was founded on July 12, 2010 on the (now defunct) animalcrossingforums.net by Jake. It was affiliated with the [[Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance]] from early in its creation. After a database error with no backup caused a large data loss, it reopened in October 23, 2010.


==History==
In 2010, when Wikia made the new skin Oasis mandatory, many wikis left; this prompted Animal Crossing City to move to the wiki farm ShoutWiki. Shortly after doing so, Animal Crossing City got in contact with the [[Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance]], and decided on a merge with Animal Crossing Wiki. The merge took place in late 2010, and the merged wiki was named Animal Crossing Wiki.
The wiki has a split history. Previously, some time in 2010, an Nookipedia hosted on Animal Crossing Forums was founded. However, problems caused the wiki to be moved to its own domain. Another wiki was founded in August 2005 on Wikia under the name Animal Crossing City. Shortly after its fifth year anniversary, Wikia made a new skin, 'Oasis', mandatory. Many wikis left Wikia, including Animal Crossing City. Originally going to move to ShoutWiki, which did happen for a short while, Animal Crossing City later decided to merge with the aforementioned independent Animal Crossing Wiki to form the wiki that exists today.
 
On November 19, 2010, Animal Crossing Wiki joined the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance.
 
On December 31, 2010, the wiki changed its name to Nookipedia, a portmanteau of their mascot {{np|Tom Nook}} (a major character in the game) and encyclopedia.

Nookipedia, originally known as Animal Crossing Wiki, is a wiki devoted to Nintendo's Animal Crossing game series. It was formed from a merged of two separate wikis.

History

The wiki was formed from a merger of two separate wikis.

The first wiki, Animal Crossing City, was originally founded on Wikia by Aeryka in August 2005.

The second wiki, Animal Crossing Wiki, was founded on July 12, 2010 on the (now defunct) animalcrossingforums.net by Jake. It was affiliated with the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance from early in its creation. After a database error with no backup caused a large data loss, it reopened in October 23, 2010.

In 2010, when Wikia made the new skin Oasis mandatory, many wikis left; this prompted Animal Crossing City to move to the wiki farm ShoutWiki. Shortly after doing so, Animal Crossing City got in contact with the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance, and decided on a merge with Animal Crossing Wiki. The merge took place in late 2010, and the merged wiki was named Animal Crossing Wiki.

On November 19, 2010, Animal Crossing Wiki joined the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance.

On December 31, 2010, the wiki changed its name to Nookipedia, a portmanteau of their mascot Tom Nook (a major character in the game) and encyclopedia.
