History of the Roblox Wikia
- The following is a created account by current wiki administrators whose introductory histories on the wiki range from 2011 to 2015. This information may not be 100% accurate and is incomplete.
2007-2011: Founding & Adoption
Originally named the ROBLOX Wiki, the wiki was founded in November 2007 by Leira77 and was promptly abandoned. The wiki, in a state of disrepair, was later adopted by Ajedi32 in 2010 where it was "resurrected" and may be attributed as a new start for the wiki.
2012: The ROBLOX Wikia
The wiki leadership has switched hands many times over its history, first in 2010, and again in 2012 would start a transition to switch hands over to Colgatecity (AKA PeterPeter5000). As the leadership transitioned, the wiki transitioned itself and was officially renamed to ROBLOX Wikia, a moniker already adopted by its community of editors to differentiate it from the official ROBLOX Wiki hosted by Roblox (today's Roblox Developer Wiki). The year of 2012 can be bookended with the wiki's first and only appearance in the Official Roblox Blog, which can be credited as the introduction to the wiki for many new editors.
This section is a WIP.
