The '''Dragon Quest Wiki''' is a collaborative project to compile a collective knowledge of video game series {{ser|Dragon Quest}}.  The series is developed by Square Enix corporation and dates back to 1986. The effort to create a database of knowledge grew out of earlier efforts by Dragon Quest fans on the web; notably the Dragon Warrior Encyclopedia, Wikipedia's Wikiproject Dragon Quest, and other various Dragon Quest fansites.

'''Dragon Quest Wiki''' is a former member of the [[Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance]]. It is an independent wiki focusing on [[Square Enix]]'s {{ser|Dragon Quest}} series. The effort was to create a database of knowledge grew out of earlier efforts by Dragon Quest fans on the web; notably the Dragon Warrior Encyclopedia, Wikipedia's Wikiproject Dragon Quest, and other various Dragon Quest fansites.

===Early development===

Like many NIWA members, Dragon Quest Wiki started on Wikia. It was founded by Zenithian on November 20, 2007, with the title, Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. During this time, FlyingRagnar was involved in the project and was promoted to administrator in early 2010.
When launched on November 20, 2007, the wiki was originally known as the Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. During this time, the site was primarily administered by Zenithian. Prior to its launch, there were discussions as to what the best method of creating a collaborative database would be. Input was received from the Dragon's Den, Dragon Quest Shrine, and Zenithia.com. It was decided that MediaWiki would be the best software to use due to it being free software and having widespread usage.  
 
  
===Merging Wikia content===
+
On October 16, 2010, the Wikia Dragon Quest Wiki, which had recently split from Wikia due to its recent management decisions, began the process of merging with Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. The name of the wiki was also changed to Dragon Quest Wiki.
FlyingRagnar became involved with the Dragon Quest content on Wikia in late 2009. He was promoted to administrator in early spring of 2010. However, management decisions made by Wikia forced him and many of the regular contributors to abandon Wikia.
 
  
On October 16, 2010, FlyingRagnar assisted in upgrading and moving the wiki to a new host. This step was the first in combining users and content from the Dragon Quest Wiki hosted by [http://www.wikia.com Wikia]. Using the appropriate Creative Commons license, content from Wikia was added to the existing content of the Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. Subsequently, the name of the wiki was changed to Dragon Quest Wiki as a result of the merge.

In June 2011, Dragon Quest Wiki, alongside Kingdom Hearts Wiki and Chronopedia, became one of the founding members of the Square Enix Independent Wiki Alliance (SEIWA), a network of independent wikis based on Square Enix games and franchises.

History

Like many NIWA members, Dragon Quest Wiki started on Wikia. It was founded by Zenithian on November 20, 2007, with the title, Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. During this time, FlyingRagnar was involved in the project and was promoted to administrator in early 2010.

On October 16, 2010, the Wikia Dragon Quest Wiki, which had recently split from Wikia due to its recent management decisions, began the process of merging with Dragon Quest Dictionary~Encyclopedia. The name of the wiki was also changed to Dragon Quest Wiki.

In June 2011, Dragon Quest Wiki, alongside Kingdom Hearts Wiki and Chronopedia, became one of the founding members of the Square Enix Independent Wiki Alliance (SEIWA), a network of independent wikis based on Square Enix games and franchises.

On March 31, 2012, Dragon Quest Wiki joined NIWA as its twenty-first member.

Following inappropriate conduct on the part of Dragon Quest Wiki's new host, the wiki was expelled from NIWA in an unanimous vote in December 2022; its wiki staff had also withdrawn from the alliance.[1] It became the first wiki to be expelled under the new expulsion policies implemented in 2021.
