WiKirby intends to remain an Independent Wiki for Nintendo's Kirby game franchise. The ongoing goal is to document Kirby information in a quality first encyclopedic style. WiKirby as an idea began in talks between Bulbapedia's owner, Archaic, staff members of Zelda Wiki.org, and Super Mario Wiki. In an effort to tie in the Nintendo themed wikis, WiKirby will link to the NIWA member wikis instead of Wikia and Wikipedia as a policy. This provides the much appreciated support from those wikis.

Style

WiKirby will strive to match the aspects of the series. The site uses round borders to its templates (currently not visible while browsing in Internet Explorer), vibrant colors, and an amusing sense of humor where possible.
