Welcome to the Unreal Wiki Community Portal. This is the place to find out what's happening on Unreal Wiki and what you can do to help.

News

Unreal Wiki reloaded

As you may have noticed, Unreal Wiki has migrated from the old UseModWiki software to a recent version of MediaWiki.

Currently we are in the process of getting (re-)started with content. Pages and images have been imported from the old Unreal Wiki and can be browsed as before. Old links via /wiki/Page_Name now redirect to /Legacy:Page_Name for normal pages or /Category:Legacy_Page_Name for categories and category-like pages. We've made best effort to compensate the different ways UseModWiki and MediaWiki normalize page names, so external links should not be broken. If you still find such a link, please tell the external site's admin to link to the new page instead.

As part of the restart, we want to create a better topic structure for the old and new knowledge to be documented. See the Help out section below to find out how you can help in this process.

General
