Motivation[edit]
We currently have properties that point to articles of wikis that are part of wiki farms like Miraheze article ID (P11250), wiki.gg article ID (P11988) and Fandom article ID (P6262). Rather than a wiki farm, GWN is a network of independent wikis that have a focus on video games:
A wiki located at wiki.gamingwikinetwork.org serves as a central hub and can be used to resolve this id to a link. –Shisma (talk) 14:59, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Support good idea Matthias M. (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Yes, that makes sense to me. Jean-Fred (talk) 15:08, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support I support providing any alternatives to Fandom wikis. Jotamide (talk) 15:51, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Many wikis leaving Fandom, we should have this up-to-date information. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 17:46, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Sir Lothar (talk) 18:29, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support --Sanqui (talk) 19:07, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support, @Shisma: but what do we do with Fallout Wiki, which already has a separate property? Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 03:06, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- interesting. we had a simmiliar situaton with Miraheze article ID (P11250) which superseeded All the Tropes ID (P8895) and there is currently a deletion proposal for that latter. this seems to be a problem that should be discussed independently from this propsal – Shisma (talk) 08:05, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- Agreed. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 00:24, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Looks good, existing wiki properties shouldn't be a problem with this proposal. Lewis Hulbert (talk) 22:41, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support I'm probably a bit biased as I help run the Gaming Wiki Network. Anyhow, I think this is a good property to have and I'm happy to help with adding it to relevant items as well as with maintaining it. ~ RampantSpirit (talk) 19:11, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
