The Minecraft Wiki has moved off Wikia and onto a MediaWiki instance hosted by a smaller company at minecraft.wiki.
The wiki is now hosted by Weird Gloop, the company that hosts the RuneScape wikis. They have more information about the move at Minecraft Wiki: Moving from Fandom.
Please spread the word, do not click on Wikia/Fandom links and use extensions such as Redirector or Indie Wiki Buddy to depend less on Wikia/Fandom.
Similarly, for LGBT+ information, prefer this and this instead of Wikia/Fandom's exclusionary wiki who also has little content.
the minecraft wiki moving to Fandom, for me, was a genuine end of an era for the game: the game used to be so opaque, it would not teach you the crafting recipes or anything, but it was okay because the wiki was so good. I know they added the recipe book a bit before the wiki moved to Fandom, and at the time I was honestly a little disappointed because I liked being encouraged to remember the recipes or else look them up, but after the move happened the addition looked extremely prescient because I did not want to look up recipes out-of-game anymore.
But now it's back!!! The new wiki is actually tolerable to use! It's going to be fun to play Minecraft as a wiki-driven experience again.
And I love that they got minecraft.wiki, like when blaseball left fandom and got blaseball.wiki. Makes the whole thing feel a bit more official.
