;''Similar-named wiki host
There is another WikiIndex [[Special:Categories|category]] of a video games [[wiki farm]] under a similar name, called [[:Category:Gamepedia.com|Gamepedia.com]]; originally owned by [[:Category:Curse|Curse, Inc.]] from the USA.  That entire Gamepedia.com wiki farm was subsequently {{Cambridge-Dictionary|acquire}}d by [[:Category:Wikia|Wikia, Inc.]] on 12 December 2018; all Gamepedia.com wiki sites were {{Cambridge-Dictionary|subsume}}d into Wikia, becoming a sub-brand of Fandom by Wikia, and the Gamepedia.com {{Cambridge-Dictionary|domain}} redirects – originally to Wikia.com, now Fandom.com.
 
After the GamePedia.org domain from Italy went offline, its contents also became part of the Gamepedia.com site of Fandom.
