Despite common belief, Wikipedia is not the only wiki in the world. There are others. Do you read/use any of them? (And yes, I already know all of you read TVTropes, you do not need to mention that!).

I read and edit at TCRF (what a surprise) and Strategywiki (a wiki which has tried but failed so far to be a Gamefaqs everyone can edit). I think that's it unless I missed something really obvious.

I used to have a personal Wiki, and I sometimes read the MSPA Wiki. That's about it, aside from TVTropes.

Last view: 1849 days 		There are a few gaming wikis I look at from time to time for shits and giggles. More recent ones for me were the Super Mario Wiki and The Binding of Isaac Wiki.

Bulbapedia. One of the most reliable sites on Pokémon data, if you ask me.

Other than that, various other gaming-related wikis.

Ah yes. Bulbapedia. I added quite a bit of 3rd gen info to that.

This is a wiki-lab for collaborative work on Mathematics, Physics and Philosophy — especially from the n-point of view: insofar as these subjects are usefully treated with tools and notions of category theory or higher category theory.

it is a site for transcendent theorists

Last view: 2598 days 		I don't read TCRF, but I added to the Super Metroid article.

I read: The digimon wiki, a Terraria wiki, minecraft wiki, crawl wiki (that's stone soup), and I also use any other wiki for pretty much anything when I want info related to it. I don't edit most of the time never edit though.

Argh, math! Physics! My brain is melting.

Anyway, more seriously, I occasionally read the Minecraft wiki, when I need help about something ingame. I also occasionally add to the SM64DS page on TCRF.

I also read 'Désencyclopédie', a French wiki that gives funny definitions of things.

Reading that didn't make my brain melt, just made me realize how much math I still need to learn. :P

Mostly game specific wikis honestly, most of them being a better resource than official guides. No, it's not for walkthroguhs but more for references and strategies for competitive games or strangely... simulation games (simulation games tend to have tricks that is not obvious to a player).

Only one I'll ever read for pleasure is tvTropes, other than Wikipedia I guess. I do browse others whenever I need to though, like when I forget if I use smooth stone to make switches in Minecraft, or I wanna know the drop rate of an item in some other game. They are very reliable sources of info for games. My favorite's the Dwarf Fortress Wiki, cause it's so much Fun.

TVTropes is deadly due to it being a link festival.. and an addictive one from how stylishly it's written.

Also, flan's link is pretty intense. Not sure I'd be able to grasp most of that, but it's not enough to brainmelter.

Then they had a shitfit.

(And removed my handy reference material for measuring breast size. Good thing I memorized most of it!)

I used to read TV Tropes but got bored of it fairly quickly... It's kind of too predictable for me, I guess?

I think the main wiki I look at nowadays outside of Wikipedia is TCRF...

Last view: 5005 days 		I'm a big fan of both Bulbapedia (one of the best, if not the best, Pokémon sites on the web) as well as The Vault, the Fallout wiki. Beware, they moved away from Wikia, and Wikia has a "Nukapedia" or something similar trying to pass itself off as a Fallout wiki. It has good info, but only because it was left over from the Vault.

Lemme have it. I still need to learn how to measure the twins in not-American sizes.
