Background[]
Foundation[]
The Kingkiller Chronicle Wiki was created on April 12, 2009 at 9:46 pm by LunaSol. It was the 15895th wiki on Wikia. Formerly acting as a bureaucrat and an administrator in the wiki, LunaSol is no longer active on this community and is considered as having left the wiki.
Hosted by Fandom, the Kingkiller Chronicle Wiki does not, and will never have a member who has the final word in community decisions, or any semblance of formal authority. Community decisions are the responsibility of all members, made by consensus through discussion. However, for maintenance and moderation purposes, Kingkiller Chronicle Wiki has a group of administrators, who are experienced members of the site entrusted with additional tools.
Design[]
As Kingkiller Chronicle Wiki is a community-driven wiki, a number of people collaborated to provide the wiki's current designs. The current theme (mainly CSS, background and logo customization) was designed by administrator Ohmystars. She is also responsible for the creation and maintenance of the most-used content templates.
Community[]
Our resource of information on everything about the The Kingkiller Chronicle series is entirely written, maintained and updated by people like you. Kingkiller Chronicle Wiki is dependent on volunteers for its continued survival.
