User blog:ElectricSky97/Most Common Reasons Why Your Wiki Gets Closed

I noticed more and more people are complaining that their wikis got closed for some reason here, so I'm just going to give the most common reasons your wiki might get closed.

1. It's Inappropriate
If your wiki is only just spam or contains extremely obscene, hateful and sexual topics with pictures, don't expect it to last long. You will also get globally blocked for it too.

2. It's Inactive and Contains Very Few Pages and Edits
If you and your community are inactive on your wiki, and made very few edits and pages there, expect the wiki to be closed. However, if a wiki has an inactive community, but has a lot of edits and pages, it'll most likely not be closed by FANDOM staff. I think that wikis with at least 50 or more pages with an inactive community are more likely to not be closed than wikis with less than 50 pages that have an inactive community.

3. It's a Wiki Only Made to Hate on Certain Characters or Things
Yes, I saw wikis whose purpose was to hate on bad characters/items like video games for example, get closed down. If you want to make a wiki that's designed to be a hate wiki on Sonic for example, expect it to be closed.

4. It's a Harassment Wiki
If you made a wiki just to harass and insult users here, expect the wiki to be closed, and you being globally blocked.

If your wiki doesn't match 4 of these reasons, then you shouldn't worry about your wiki closing at all!
