Alternative History, a Fandom lifestyle community wiki site from Wikia, also known as the AltHistory Wiki, was founded on 26 January 2005. It was initially an outgrowth of the creative energies exhibited on the Yahoo! Conculture group, which itself is an outgrowth of the Brown University Conlang mailing list. Any and all alternate histories are permitted here. You are welcome to contribute any pages you wish, whether it be a minor sketch of an alternate history or an entire story that's fully-fleshed out.

The Conlang and Conculture mailing lists also gave rise to FrathWiki and the Ill Bethisad wiki.

It has sister wikis in Spanish (by far the biggest one), German, Russian, Portuguese, Polish, and some smaller versions in Chinese, Dutch, French, Italian, Catalan, Latin, Swedish, and Korean.

extract from the wiki:

Any and all original alternate histories are permitted here. You are welcome to contribute any pages you wish, whether it be a minor sketch of an alternate history or an entire story that's fully-fleshed out.

Should you have suggestions or material you'd wish to add to an existing alt-history, please contact the author to discuss integration, or propose it on the discussion pages.

Please make sure you understand the typical definition of Alternate History, found in the What is Alternate History? page. While Future Histories are interesting, as is science fiction, these are not within the scope of our wiki.

Note that only those timelines which are created by the author should be posted and not those which are derivative work.

While at this time we are only exhibiting pages relating to our Alternate histories, we aren't ruling out the possibilities of discussion, or description pages to help would-be alt-historians get off to a good start.
