History

edit

Between 2007 and 2010, Grand Theft Wiki was hosted at Wikia. In October 2010, as a result of ongoing controversy, the community decided by consensus to leave Wikia and become an independent site.[1] This move was opposed by Wikia, who continue to operate a copy of the site under the name 'GTA Wiki', and have revoked the access of staff and community members who assisted in the site move. As of August 2011, Grand Theft Wiki currently has over 45,000 pages and 6,800 articles.[2]

Current staff members on Grand Theft Wiki include Gboyers, JFletcher, A-Dust, ZS, Spaceeinstein, Gta-mysteries and Chimpso.[3]
