Description
A wiki about Spyro the Dragon. Prior to 2010, the site was abandoned by the original admins, but was revived by UxieLover1994, who adopted it in July that year; her adoption lead to her Spyro Era videos on YouTube. When Wikia created a new skin which provided to be very controversial, many wikis left the site. The Spyro Wiki attempted to move to ShoutWiki, but problems with it's servers forced it's admins to return to Wikia, though Uxie instead went to Spyropedia until it's own server began to have difficulties. She returned to Wikia in September 2011.
In February 2011, the series was yet again rebooted with the announcement of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventures, which got quite a negative reaction from the older fans. Vandalism and trolling rose, but the traffic was higher than ever. However, fighting between the admins rose, as there was no manual of style, and Uxie's ideas to keep the wiki under control were controversial. Today, the site still has no proper MoS, and it's savior admin who adopted it has indefinitely left the site to promote SCIWA.
