Strangest wikis you've come across

Another odd wiki is the wiki about Nintendo games that didn't exist, but are wanted by fans. I am talking about Fantendo.

Conservapedia (no I won't link there)

An embarrassment for any decent person.

Heh.

I hope I don't insult some people here, but I thought that the strangest wiki I came across is Userpedia, which is predominantly filled with Mariowiki regulars. I thought it has more than that, but I wonder what the history is behind its creation.

Userpedia has a long and complicated history, but talking only about its creation: there was a time when the MarioWiki was filled with fanfics, comics, and whatnot. This was seen as distracting from the main goal of the wiki, and thus Userpedia was created to host all these fictions, comics, games, and more. And then there's the story of Scribblewiki, Adriels, the Nuke DPL incident, and much more. I'm sure Userpedia has a page on Userpedia.
 
Some of Conservapedia's wonderful writing:

Stephen Colbert article said:
His show The Colbert Report gained credibility by featuring Conservapedia on December 8, 2009

Video game article said:

New York values article said:

Wikipedia article said:
Most of Wikipedia's articles can be edited publicly by both registered and anonymous editors, mostly consisting of teenagers and the unemployed. As such, it tends to project a liberal—and, in some cases, even socialist, Communist, and Nazi-sympathising—worldview, which is totally at odds with conservative reality and rationality.

Harry Potter said:
Since their release, interest and acceptance of withcraft has increased, particularly among the goth subculture, and many rides and attractions centered around the books are causing children to accept and admire witchcraft and magic.

Literally the first sentence in the Apple article said:
Apple Inc. is a liberal corporation

Liberalism article said:

Youtube article said:
The most liberal person on YouTube is Marxist propagandist, Reich-Wing Watch.

(it's a tiny channel with 7,000 subs)
 
Its articles on evolution and atheism are particularly bad.

Ah, Fantendo. I remember seeing something about Nintendo movies on there somewhere and getting all exited... then seeing the "Nothing is real" or whatever disclaimer.

14-year-old me was an awkward kid.

TV Tropes, if it is a wiki.

What's so strange about TV Tropes? I go on it all the time; it's a pretty interesting guide on clichés in media.

For starters, it has coverage on just about anything, ranging from Super Mario, comic books, base breaking characters to useful notes on some famous people.

There's also Fridge Logic/Brilliance/Horror, Heartwarming, Tearjerker, Nightmarefuel, Just for fun, Drinking Game, headscratchers, WMG, YMMW, Laconic, Fanficrecs, Sugarwiki, Darthwiki, Awesome, AwesomeMusic, Trivia, Memetic Mutation, Character sheets, ShoutOuts and Pantheon.

I mean, there's coverage on literally almost anything, and it's so much fun to read tropes, character sheets and YMMW there. I love it!

But at least they don't describe specific examples anymore.

They do however, list fan-preferred couples. Here are the Mario examples:

Mario/Peach
Luigi/Daisy
Bowser/Peach
Yoshi/Birdo
Mario/Daisy
Luigi/Peach
Mario/Rosalina
Mario/Luigi
Peach/Daisy
Peach/Rosalina
Toad/Toadette
Luigi/Rosalina
Waluigi/Rosalina
Mario/Pauline (In which some fans point that they were the Official Couple in Donkey Kong)
Bowser/Luigi
Bowser/Midbus
Bowser/Donkey Kong
 
While Smashwiki is no strange wiki, some things they name are.....weird to say the least.

The upper hitbox of C. Falcon's d-air in Melee is named "Nipple Spike".

There's also Sex Kick and there might be a few others, but I don't remember them right now.

We all know what a wiki is for: To provide accurate information about the given subject (usually). They're meant to help people and monkeys alike understand the subject and learn new things about stuff they thought they knew everything about.

But then there are those wikis. Ones that don't provide any information other than simply being a fanbase. Or maybe they do provide information, but they go out of their way and the whole thing is just a mess or... really strange. This one I found called "We Are Daisy" is a wikia entirely about Princess Daisy, pretty much to the point of fan-worship. Not saying the set-up is bad, just something I didn't expect to run into and strange. It's just...wow.

Any other random/cringy/why-did-they-make-this wikis out there you've come across?

This is just wrong.
http://justinbieber.wikia.com/wiki/Bieberpedia
 
Looking at a few of the song pages, Bieberpedia doesn't look at all strange or wrong. Maybe it's because I didn't dig deep enough, but I didn't see anything creepy or over-obsessive about the site.
 
There is a wiki dedicated to unsettling opening/closing logos and scary screens (Like the PS1's Fearful Harmony).
What's weird about the wiki, is that there are so many nonsensical categories, such as "Logos that scare (Fictional character)"

Went through the whole thread and was surprised this one wasn't posted:

That fad really died hard, but I remember it. I actually used to flame the creator of Malleo when I was a child because he blocked me for being a fanboy. He actually took pictures of my face from my crappy(I was 10 and not focused on being smart, didn't know better) videos(or at least his friends did) and trolled me with them. I can send more details and the only known video remaining fro all the drama if you want me to.

I wonder if anyone's tried to make a category that has EVERY PAGE ON THE WIKI and the category's name is "logos that scare literally anyone in the world be they fictional or real" just to bring to light how stupid those categories are
 
Uncyclopedia. It is relatively well known and the site as a whole I guess wouldn't be "strange", but some of their articles...wow, just wow
