2004
TibiaWiki is founded by Erig on November 22, 2004.[ Main Page history] Initially, it is placed on a subdomain of the statistics webpage Erig.net and has the url tibia.erig.net. During these first few months of existence the only Administrator is Erig. The first content article is Hellsgate Library, and some other Library articles quickly following after that one. Anonymous edits are still possible, anyone can edit the wiki even without a user account.
2007
New work on Objects begins. Continued effort to standardize all Books, Buildings, Loot pages with templates. Whitelaces creates 4 bots (TavinBot TypeLists, TavinBot CreatureLists, TavinBot ItemLists, TavinBot) to make repetitive edits, however they are only used for a small period of time. Art Featherpitch becomes an Administrator. Administrator Lord de los Druidas is hacked and immediately blocked by Whitelaces, followed by being permanently blocked and removed from the Administrator team by Erig two days later. In December, TibiaWiki moves from Erig.net to Wikia. With the new domain, posting any link to TibiaWiki in the game and in the official website is temporarily considered illegal.
