Incels Wiki,[1] found at Incels.Wiki, is the third encyclopedia of incel related topics in the English language, after the first at Love-Shy.com, and the second at IncelWiki.org, which was made by Nathan Larson.[2] It was meant to be a repository of academia, folk theories, memes, people, and art, associated with involuntary celibates. Involuntary celibates are defined on Incel Wiki as being those who for an extended period of time could not establish a romantic and / or sexual relationship, even after approaching a wide variety of people.

Most of the wiki material is licensed under a Creative Commons license, and most of the original authors, including a co-creator, were banned by a non-active person on the wiki. The original authors and the co-creator then moved to IncelWiki.com to continue where they left off. Then the original creators moved again to IncelWiki.org (not associated with Larson's earlier .org, as the domain was picked up on the open market).

Creation

It was first created by William and Master in June 2018 as a place to be non-ideological about incels.

Content licencing

The authors of the vast, vast majority of Incels.Wiki content released their writing under a Creative Commons license, on Incels.Wiki itself.

Some of the material on Incels.Wiki is under a non-commercial license from the Love-Shy.com (now Love-Shy.net) wiki.[clarify please]

Domain name changes

In November 2018, the domain named changed from the first domain name: Incels.info, to Incels.Wiki.[8] Possibly due to Afilias dropping Incels.me, and the Incels.co administrators moving all the sites on their server off Afilias owned TLDs out of a protective mechanism.

Account granting

Registration for a new user account takes place through granting anonymous IP editors registration after they have made good edits.

Academic and media citation

Academic institutions publishing works citing Incel Wiki include: UA Little Rock, RWTH Aachen University, and Uppssala University. It has also been cited in the news magazine: New Statesman.
