Hard Drop Tetris Wiki (also known simply as Tetris Wiki) is an NIWA member and independent wiki focusing on the Tetris franchise. Unlike most other wikis, Hard Drop Tetris Wiki covers the games on a technological and mechanical level, as well as strategy and other curiosities.

Tetris Wiki is an extension of Hard Drop, a Tetris fan community founded by Blink in 2009. The community is also involved in multiple Tetris tournaments such as the Classic World Championship and Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters.

History

The Tetris Wiki was originally hosted on Tetris Concept from March 2006, which was also a forum. It was founded by "caffeine", a competitive Tetris fan who wanted a place to 'unravel the mysteries of Tetris' after one of his favorite sites about Tetris strategy called Tetris Lovers shut down. ^[1]

Caffeine announced the retirement of Tetris Concept in June 2009^[2], explaining that he thought it was time to 'move on' and that the shutdown was related to real life influences at the time, including starting a new career and buying a new house. Caffeine did not want the Tetris Wiki to go to waste, so he had all of the original content copied on to a Tetris site on Wikia. After the forums were taken down, an unofficial reboot of Tetris Concept with all of the original content was created by members who disagreed with the move to Wikia, hosted on tetrisconcept.net, without caffeine's permission.

Later, "Blink", a member of the original Tetris Concept, founded a new Tetris community called Hard Drop in June 2009. Blink obtained permission from caffeine to use the original copy of the Tetris Concept Wiki, hosting it on Hard Drop as the Hard Drop Tetris Wiki. This meant that there were now three Tetris Wikis; the Wikia version, the unauthorized tetrisconcept.net version and the Hard Drop Tetris Wiki.

In late 2013, Hard Drop contacted NIWA, inquiring whether the Hard Drop Tetris Wiki could become part of the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance. The wiki was accepted and joined the alliance on January 17, 2014, as its twenty-second member.
