On September 28, 2017, an email was sent out saying that the service would be shutting down on December 1.  The website currently shows a message which states: ''"wiki.wiki has closed. It was a great run, but unfortunately, we had to close down wiki.wiki. If you did not retrieve your wiki before it went offline, please send an email to [email protected]"''.  The last wiki front page of the Wiki.Wiki was {{tag|archived}} by the InternetArchive WaybackMachine at [[Archive.org]] was [[Archive.org:20171003205940/https://Wiki.Wiki/|3 October 2017]].
