'''Wikisimpsons – the Simpsons wiki''', is a [[wiki]] for fans of the ''{{tag|The Simpsons}}''. It is an expanding database on all aspects of ''The Simpsons''.


The wiki was founded by Postbagboy on September 24, {{tag|FoundedIn2005|2005}} on Wikia. Post left before he could even make a single mainspace edit. Since then, the wiki went through several transformations, getting a new skin in the beginning of 2010 as well as a new team of [[Sysop|admins]].
'''Wikisimpsons – ''the Simpsons wiki''''', is an encyclopedic [[WhatIsWiki|wiki site]] for fans of the ''{{tag|The Simpsons}}''.  It is an expanding database on all aspects of ''The Simpsons''.


On September 24, 2010, Wikisimpsons had its fifth birthday. In October of that same year, a decision was made to split away from {{tag|Ex-Wikia|Wikia}} for {{tag|ShoutWiki}}. This was due to a new skin released by [[:Category:Wikia|Wikia]], and subsequent arguments with the staff. [[Solar Dragon]] became the [[founder]] and [[steward]] of this new wiki.
The wiki was founded by Postbagboy (aka 'Post') on 24 September [[:Category:FoundedIn2005|2005]] on the commercial wiki farm [[:Category:Wikia|Wikia]]. Post left before he even made a single main-space [[edit]].  Since then, the wiki went through several transformations, getting a new [[:Category:Skin|skin]] in the beginning of 2010, as well as a new team of [[Sysop|admins]].


In June 2011, Wikisimpsons completed its move to {{tag|Ex-Wikia|independence}}. It now runs on {{tag|MediaWiki}} with a nice {{tag|custom skin}}. It has since grown very quickly, now beating its Wikia competitor by over 10,000 articles. This independent wiki is funded by way of {{tag|advertising}} from {{tag|GoogleAds}}.
On 24 September {{tag|FoundedIn2010|2010}}, Wikisimpsons had its fifth [[Wiki birthday|birthday]].  In October of that same year, a decision was made to split away, or {{tag|fork}} from {{tag|Ex-Wikia|Wikia}} for a new non-commercial wiki farm, {{tag|ShoutWiki}}. This was due to a new [[:Category:Wikia skin|skin released by Wikia]], and subsequent arguments with the staff. [[Solar Dragon]] became the [[founder]] and [[steward]] of this new wiki.


For April Fools Day 2012, Wikisimpsons was "changed" to a Family Guy Wiki for a day. On project pages, many words like "Homer" and "The Simpsons" were changed to their ''Family Guy'' equivalents.
