'''PokéWiki''' is a {{wp|German language}} wiki that, like [[Bulbapedia]], is a community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
'''PokéWiki''' is a {{wp|German language|German}} Pokémon encyclopedia under a wiki system that, like [[Bulbapedia]], is community-driven. PokéWiki and Bulbapedia were founding members of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], a multi-lingual group of wikis documenting all aspects of Pokémon.


==History==
==History==
PokéWiki is, like the other members of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], an extension of a parent site, in this case, [[Filb.de]]. Since shortly after the initial development of Bulbapedia, various members of the [http://www.filb.de/forum/ FilbBoard] proposed that there be a German-language version as well. Eventually, enough support came together to begin work on what would become PokéWiki itself in August of 2005.
PokéWiki was founded as an extension of [[Filb.de]] on August of 2005, after various members at [http://www.filb.de/forum/ FilbBoard], the forums for Filb.de, agreed for the commission of a German Pokémon wiki, shortly after the initial development of Bulbapedia. Shortly after its incorporation, PokéWiki and Bulbapedia joined forces as language affiliate, launching the foundation of Encyclopaediae Pokémonis.


Shortly after its inception, PokéWiki and Bulbapedia joined forces as the founding members of Encyclopaediae Pokémonis.
In August 2009, PokéWiki began a cooperation with a manga/anime and videogame magazine. This resulted in an extra page for PokéWiki in the magazine, bigger ads in the wiki and better covering of the server funds, which don't have to be completely paid by the admins anymore. In January 2014, the cooperation found its end and PokéWiki made a contract with a German advertising company.
On November 14, 2015 PokéWiki reached 20,000 articles, the second one of the [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]] members to do so, the first being [[Bulbapedia]].
Like Bulbapedia finds a sort of mascot in {{p|Bulbasaur}}, with its logo being that of Bulbasaur's bulb with a [[Poké Ball]] on it, PokéWiki finds its mascot in a green {{p|Pikachu}} aptly known as {{de|PokéWiki:Greenchu|Greenchu}}.
===Server seizure===
In late August 2008, PokéWiki and its parent site, [[Filb.de]], had their server seized. Upon this, PokéWiki put up a notice explaining the situation. This is an excerpt of the notice left up:

By September 6, 2008, PokéWiki was partially restored using an old backup, with registration and editing locked. It would take until May 15, 2009 for PokéWiki to be reopened again to the public.


On May 15, 2009, PokéWiki was opened again to the public.
In August 2009, PokéWiki began a cooperation with a manga/anime and videogame magazine.
