The Pxls Wiki was originally hosted on Fandom but was moved to run on Pxls' servers using the MediaWiki software.
On February 27th 2023, someone false-reported the wiki to the Fandom staff causing it to get temporarily taken down. After contacting the Fandom staff, we were able to get the wiki opened again, but only for around a week to give us time to move all the data elsewhere before it would be closed forever.
Almost all the data from Fandom was able to be transferred to the new wiki except for the map pages (which have since been recreated but with limited features). The map pages were not able to be transferred since they utilized a feature only available on Fandom.
