'''GamePedia''', originally {{Cambridge-Dictionary|stylized|stylised}} as '''Gamepedia''', and {{Cambridge-Dictionary|formerly}} known as '''GamerWiki''', [[:Category:Dead|was]] a free, online, [[:Category:Video games|video game]] wiki site [[:Category:Encyclopedia|encyclopedia]] from [[:Category:Italy|Italy]].

Originally found at <tt>[[Archive.org:20050321012811/http://www.Gamepedia.info/index.php/Main_Page|Gamepedia.info]]</tt> URL, it subsequently moved to the 'dot org' {{Wp|top-level domain}} (TLD), {{Cambridge-Dictionary|ie|i.e.}}, <tt>[[GamePedia.org]]</tt>; and was available in two separate [[:Category:Wiki language|languages]]: English; at [[GamePedia.org (en)]], and Italian; at [[GamePedia.org (it)]].

From an early '[[Archive.org:20050322062549/http://www.Gamepedia.info/index.php/Gamepedia:About|About]]' page:{{Cquote|'''Gamepedia''' is a free content [[:Category:Encyclopedia|encyclopedia]] being written collaboratively by [[Editor|contributors]] from around the [[:Category:Earth|world]]. The site is a [[wiki]], which means that [[:Category:OpenEdit|anyone can edit]] articles, simply by clicking on the [[edit]] this page link that appears at the top of each page.

Gamepedia is created by Francesco Lia as a simple folder on <tt>GameOver.it</tt> site in 2002.  Now is online and public for everyone.  Keep out from imitations.

;''Similar-named wiki host

There is another WikiIndex [[Special:Categories|category]] of a video games [[wiki farm]] under a similar name, called [[:Category:Gamepedia.com|Gamepedia.com]]; originally owned by [[:Category:Curse|Curse, Inc.]] from the USA.  That entire Gamepedia.com wiki farm was subsequently {{Cambridge-Dictionary|acquire}}d by [[:Category:Wikia|Wikia, Inc.]] on 12 December 2018; all Gamepedia.com wiki sites were {{Cambridge-Dictionary|subsume}}d into Wikia, becoming a sub-brand of Fandom by Wikia, and the Gamepedia.com {{Cambridge-Dictionary|domain}} redirects – originally to Wikia.com, now Fandom.com.

 

After the GamePedia.org domain from Italy went offline, its contents also became part of the Gamepedia.com site of Fandom.
