Two Pikmin-based wikis join NIWA: Pikipedia and Pikcanon-Not! become the newest members in the ...

Pikipedia, which focuses on the Pikmin series of games, and Pikcanon-NOT, which focuses on the fanon of the Pikmin series, have both joined NIWA to become the eighth member of it. Both wikis were once a branch of Wikia, but gained independence at the same domain with the help of Super Mario Wiki head Porplemontage.

Yay! Pikmin is one of my favourite franchises, and I've been wanting Pikipedia to join NIWA for a long time.

Good.

We can use them to gather food, build infrastructure and, if need be, sacrifice them at our leisure.
 
Re: Two Pikmin-based wikis join NIWA: Pikipedia and Pikcanon-Not! become the newest m

I'm wondering why there are two of them. There are only two Pikmin games. Why is there even a second one for fandom stuff? That doesn't make a lick of sense at all, especially when there are other games with even larger fandom materal which make do with only one wiki.

Anyway, good for them, Pikmin is an awesome series I can't wait for the third one.

While I'm not surprised there are two pikmin wikis, I'm surprised both joined independently. Or did they officially merge with this? They're both running on the same server it looks like...

Oh well, it's pretty sweet that NIWA is growing steadily. I wonder which major franchise is next to join?
 
Re: Two Pikmin-based wikis join NIWA: Pikipedia and Pikcanon-Not! become the newest m

I couldn't speculate on the doubtless exciting politics of it all, but it seems to me that both wikis pooled their resources to apply for the same slot... so they've joined NIWA as if they were a single wiki. That's the impression that I get, anyway.

The first time I played Pikmin, I got Olimar stuck in a wall. It got better after that, though.

Pikipedia is the greatest name of all time.
 
Re: Two Pikmin-based wikis join NIWA: Pikipedia and Pikcanon-Not! become the newest m

I guess NIWA has gone on an employment drive lately...
 
Re: Two Pikmin-based wikis join NIWA: Pikipedia and Pikcanon-Not! become the newest m

yay! Hopefully they will get updated more.
and maybe, just maybe, nintendo will notice. While they are checking bulba to try to sue them, maybe they will be like, "wow, people stil play pikmin?"
2 pikmin wikis is barely enough.

next you guys need an animal crossing niwa wiki.
are you listening archaic?
