* '''December 11th, 2022''' - The [[dqwiki:Main Page|Dragon Quest Wiki]] has been officially ousted as a member of the NIWA Network today, following a unanimous vote by our members. The ousting comes after inappropriate conduct by the wiki's new host, including repeated harassment and slurs towards our community members, and concluding they cannot be trusted to safeguard users' private information. This is not an indictment towards the rest of Dragon Quest Wiki's editors; we wish them the best moving forward. | |||

The second is Ukikipedia, a comprehensive wiki database about every technical aspect of the [[Nintendo 64]]'s flagship title ''[[ukikipedia:Super Mario 64|Super Mario 64]]'' and its variant re-releases, a great resource for the hacking and modding scene wanting to create their own builds based on the game and its variants. | |||
* '''May 03rd, 2021''' - A {{lw|Editor-in-Chief/draft|revised wiki position}} is being proposed, please help us discuss it. | |||

* '''June 23rd, 2017''' - NIWA added a new member yesterday - it has been a long while: ARMS Institute, a wiki about the Nintendo Switch game ''[[armswiki:ARMS (game)|ARMS]]''. We do not know yet if ''ARMS'' will have any sequels and/or related new entries in the future, but it is amazing that a brand new IP from Nintendo could garner such a grand following and online community in a very short amount of time - enough to launch an independent wiki site about a sole game, at least. Due to the overwhelming success of the first game, it would not be surprising if Nintendo are planning to release more entries in their successful new IP after ''ARMS''. This sounds familiar for some reason. By the way, Nintendo's last major new IP, ''Splatoon'', is a getting [[splatoonwiki:Splatoon 2|a sequel]] next month. | |||
