Template:TOCright Network italiano wiki indipendenti Nintendo, NiwiN, is a network of wikis and their associated websites written in Italian, that aims to chronicle all things Nintendo, supporting wikis independent of large corporate organisations and wiki-farms. It's the Italian section of Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance (NIWA).
History

Inductees
There are currently four members of NiwiN; Super Mario Wiki, Pokémon Central Wiki, WikiBound, and Xenopedia.
Name
The name Progetto Niwit was temporary. It was considered that with only two members to be part of it, and with the absence of a wiki dedicated to Zelda, third pillar of the Nintendo series, one could not speak of an Italian alliance of encyclopedias, as much as a project. Therefore, it was decided to make the logo of the project more personal by inserting the symbols of the two franchises it currently represents.
With the induction of WikiBound and Xenopedia in January 2019, the logo and name was changed to NiwiN. The new logo is of an octopus that symbolizes the partnership of the alliance, with the iwi part being the body and the N's resembeling tentacles. The idea is for each member to be a tentacle of the octopus.
