Announcement from the Fallen London wiki editors

Fallen London
1

[color=#ff00cc]We know the Fallen London wiki is a useful resource for many of our players, so we very much appreciate the work the editors put in to maintaining it. The wiki will soon be moving to a new home, and the editors asked us to share their announcement about it here to help get the word out. Though the wiki isn’t maintained by or affiliated with us, we’ve offered to cover the server costs of the move as a form of support.

[/color] Hey everyone! We wanted to let you know the Fallen London Wiki is currently planning on leaving Fandom. We’d like to explain our decision and our plans here.

We’ve had issues with Fandom for years now, and have long been aware of the perennial complaints within the community about said 	issues. Over the last 5 months, we’ve been working on a new wiki, with the aim of making the experience better for everyone. 	[color=rgb(29, 28, 29)][font=Slack-Lato, appleLogo, sans-serif]Excitingly, Failbetter have agreed to help with this by covering the full hosting costs.[/font][/color]

We’ll be providing more information about this very soon, but in the meantime, you can read our [url=https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Fallen_London_Wiki:Leaving_Fandom]thread[/url] on the wiki for a more in-depth 	explanation and ask questions in our new [url=https://discord.gg/4vQ6keSYud]wiki Discord[/url].

If you’d like to play around with the new wiki, it’s accessible at [url=https://fallenlondon.wiki]https://fallenlondon.wiki[/url]. Be aware - it’s not perfectly in sync with the 	Fandom wiki, and any edits made will likely be erased before official launch. We are planning to officially launch (with up to date 	content) in the next week or so.

We appreciate any and all feedback; it can be submitted either in the #wiki-feedback channel on the wiki Discord or using [url=https://forms.gle/esJkLjsLrUKnAutu8]this form[/url]. 	Bear in mind, although we’ve made every effort to fortify the wiki ahead of launch, things may not be completely stable at the moment. 	If 	you have any questions, let us know. Thanks!

[color=#ff00cc]We’ll post another update once the wiki has moved to its new home.[/color]

So, judging by the latest wiki-blog post, it is now permitted to post results of fate-locked branches, like breeding Rubbery Hound without the potion, if you omit the text itself. That’s useful, thank you.

As I understand it, the pages for Fate-locked options still cannot include reward information, but the relevant numbers could be listed on the relevant guide page alongside the info for non-Fate options.

This is great news! I was so annoyed with all the ads that would pop up every time you went to a different page, so I hope this is the end of it. It’s also really thoughtful of FBG to take care of server costs. Just goes to show how much they care.

The only reason I ever installed an ad blocker is because Wikia (now Fandom) is unusable without one.

And close to unusable even with one. You stop the videos running in one place, they pop up somewhere else. You stop them there, they start up again – and this is despite having settings that say &quotno bl**dy&quot videos to trigger at any time anywhere ever, thank you&quot. Grrr.

At least you have one. I only use that specific wiki on mobile because I play the game there too. And… I don’t have an ad blocker on my phone, unlike my laptop. Although, I never really bothered to look into it. Maybe that should change. Either way, it’s really dumb how ads work on Fandom.
