Arknights Terra Wiki:About

“

Welcome home, Doctor!

Arknights Terra Wiki is a public online encyclopedia, or wiki, dedicated to the tower defense game Arknights that can be edited by anyone.

While there are other public sources of information for Arknights out there, none of them can be considered a wiki in a true sense, as they are mostly focused on covering game-play related information. Therefore, the purpose of Arknights Terra Wiki is to present in-depth information and the game's lore, from the coverage and summary of the game's complex story into background details that can be easily missed, something that other Arknights information sites mostly lacks, and puts us on the same type of site with the semi-official PRTS Wiki but differs in which we primarily caters to players in the Global server.

The Arknights Terra Wiki's origins can be traced back to the Arknights Fandom Wiki, founded by Kol.cressie on May 28, 2019 — not long after the game's original CN release in the Fandom platform. The former Wiki site was deemed 'inferior' than other Arknights fan-resource sites and not updated much, at least until Nikitazero noticed of its existence in April 2020 and starts contributing to the wiki by providing much-needed general improvements. In November 2020, Nikitazero was given the role as the wiki's moderator and implemented various changes that would make the site a more reliable source of information especially after becoming the head administrator and eventually adopted the wiki in 2021 after the long absence of previous staffs, attracting more contributors that would later become staff members such as Nagomiya (formerly ZewenRex), C.Caleb, GeniusGD, and Shainel. In late September 2023, it was decided that the Wiki will be migrated to the wiki.gg platform after Fandom's issues become more apparent and after much discussions between the staffs and other users. The migration took about two weeks and went smoothly. The staffs then decided to rebrand the new wiki as "Arknights Terra Wiki", after the world where Arknights takes place, to disassociate the new site from the old Fandom Wiki which, unfortunately, remains there to comply with its policies but no longer actively updated — thus the Terra Wiki is no longer related with the Fandom Wiki in any way except being the original site. It would later have more contributors joining such as Guildmarm, KUHMUH17 (known as A W in Discord), Jowett, and Curiosity, LightningStorm123, Kousekl (usually goes by Elkes), DoktahBranflakes (usually goes by Bran), Sethfire, TheWindowsGuy, Most.tea, Puppiiz and BryghtShadow.

To ensure that our content does not stray too far from Arknights and remains in-line with the source material, the Arknights Terra Wiki have developed policies and guidelines and editors must be familiar with those before contributing to ensure consistency and that everything is up to standard.

The ever-expanding world of Terra and the game itself provides a rich drop of content and we hope that our information are helpful for everyone, be it newcomers or veterans.
