The Johnisdead Wiki is an online database containing information pertaining to the Johnisdead ARG created by the players. The Johnisdead Wiki is one of the many different methods players used to catalogue the ARG. Despite often being considered a non-canon website that does not effect the ARG, some canon events took place within the Johnisdead Wiki itself. This article is about the original Johnisdead Wiki hosted on Fandom. For information regarding the Wiki you are currently reading, click here.
History
The Johnisdead Wiki was created on July 22nd, 2015 by the player Oceanstuck. At the time, the Internet Detectives Tumblr was the main method of documenting Johnisdead information. The Wiki was created as a more permanent method of archiving updates. Other active players at the time such as Eevee, CircleHunter, and ADULT_LINK began creating character pages, slowly filling out the Wiki. The Wiki mostly remained inactive and lacked much essential information until 2017, when the Internet Detectives Tumblr was abandoned. During this time, the player Wolfcat began revamping the Wiki, moving the ARG's various Timelines over from the Internet Detectives Tumblr and fully documenting pages discovered on canon websites.
On August 23rd, 2019, the player Wolfcat became an official character within Johnisdead. On this day, Wolfcat was overtaken by the malicious entity Pumpkinhead. In an attempt to obfuscate information pertaining to his existence, Pumpkinhead began omitting information from the Timeline pages. On November 9th, 2019, Wolfcat was accused of being a gamejacker as a part of the Pumpkinhead Gamejack. However, this accusation was a canon event in and of itself in a ploy to paint Pumpkinhead as a non-threat. Despite this public accusation, information was still being omitted from the Timelines.
On December 27th, 2019, updates to the Our Horizon Arc Timeline ceased. The Wiki once again began to fall into a state of decay, becoming heavily outdated. On January 17th, 2020, the DnD Session began with BUP as the Dungeon Master. It was soon revealed that each time the players' character died in the DnD session, information would be removed from the Timelines. This was showcased when the player's character Sam the Genasi died, resulting in the entire YSHDT Arc Timeline being replaced with text that read "SAM HAS DIED. ATTEMPT 1.". However, this threat was quickly circumvented when the player Xenquility recovered the YSHDT Arc Timeline through the article's page history. Two months later on March 26th, 2020, "Wolfcat" restored the YSHDT Arc Timeline in an attempt to provoke BUP.
On April 20th, 2020, Pumpkinhead was revealed to be canon. Two months later on June 10th, 2020, the player Jackuan repeatedly provoked and taunted Pumpkinhead in the Internet Detectives Discord Server. This resulted in Pumpkinhead corrupting the Johnisdead Wiki, transforming the header and background images and removing several of the Timelines archived on the Wiki. A few days later on June 15th, 2020, Pumpkinhead revealed the new Johnisdead Wiki as a cruel gesture towards Erika. This new Wiki clearly listed her as a canon character and documented all of her past conversations when she had been repeatedly attempting to convince players she was real. Following this, Erika left the Internet Detectives Discord Server.
Since the unveiling of the new Johnisdead Wiki, the original Johnisdead Wiki has gone mostly unused. It is now only used for reference for information that has not yet been fully transferred over to the new Wiki.

Eevee - Horrible Pain - August 2nd, 2015
As discussed on OOC night, this Wikia is in pain, and needs medicine. Sweet, sweet, medicine.
I'm going to try and work my magic as much as possible, but I strongly encourage my fellow ID's to take part in adding to pages and helping us build this thing from the ground up. As I'm the caretaker of the Tumblr, I won't be able to put a lot of time into this all at once, but I'll work at it slowly alongside the official timelines and updates.
Let's make this happen :p
