TFWiki.net was added to Wikimedia's [[WikiIndex:InterWiki|Interwiki map]] on January 15, 2014 with the prefix "TFWiki".
TFWiki has continued to enjoy a good relationship with Hasbro, taking part in the Transformers Hall of Fame vote along with other Transformers fans sites, and has continued to be invited to Hasbro's Toy Fair events. Server expenses necessitated another hosting move in January 2013 to Linode. The wiki passed 20,000 articles on February 3, 2015.
