Pxls wiki relocation

The Pxls Wiki was originally hosted on Fandom but was eventually moved to run on MediaWiki and hosted on Pxls' servers.

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.

There are a few theories as to who false-reported the wiki to get it taken down, but they all have something in common. They were all banned from the Pxls community and continue to try and crawl their way back into the community to an unhealthy degree.

Almost all the data from Fandom was able to be transferred to the new wiki, except for the map pages and every page's edit history. The map pages were not able to be transferred since they utilized a feature only available on Fandom. The edit history for every page was (and maybe still is) transferrable, but due to so much new edit history being added since the wiki's relocation we figure it would probably be better not to try and smash the two together and hope for the best. (Backups would be made of course, but the headache of trying to pull it off isn't worth trying to get the old edit history back as no one really minds.) During the relocation, edit history was not transferred using the method we used, and we didn't bother to try and transfer it over at the time due to just wanting a functioning wiki and the thought the edit history could be added later.

Besides the edit history we lost, the wiki's relocation was likely for the better in the end due to Fandom's extremely obnoxious ads and other junk having gotten even worse since our relocation.
