On the 24th September 2010, Wikisimpsons had its fifth birthday. In October 2010, a decision was made to split away from {{tag|Wikia}} and become hosted on {{tag|ShoutWiki}}.

In June 2011, Wikisimpsons completed its move to {{tag|Ex-Wikia|independence}}. It now runs on {{tag|MediaWiki}} with a nice {{tag|custom skin}}.
