Bible Wiki (also previously stylized as BibleWiki.com, though hosted at Fandom / Wikia.org), is a Fandom books community wiki-website that is hosted by Wikia. It is a collaborative database that documents people, places, books / literary elements, doctrines, and historical information that pertains to the Bible. The wiki documents content from a biblical point of view, which means that content is documented from within the perspective of the Bible itself, and does not subject biblical content to modern day discussions / interpretations. While assuming the biblical content is accurate, the articles are not naive nor ignorant of scholarly discussions; rather they seek a different approach than Wikipedia.
This wiki has been through many iterations of the same concept of the same namespace, but drastically different in different periods. While the concept/namespace was started in 2006 as the 'Bible Study Wiki- cliffsnotes to The Bible', its current (and permanent) concept is a ministry-website that is meant to allow people to grow in their knowledge of the words of The Trinity. In its current form, it has been around since 2013, overseen by two administrators: Superdadsuper, who is currently a college student studying to be a Bible Scholar, and SouthWriter, a retired security guard with seminary training.
This wiki is functional and active, albeit with low activity. Activity is largely dependent upon the efforts of the administrators and a small community of edittors / social followers. Long-term plans are to incorporate into an actual non-profit organization, to turn a hobby-project into a 'real ministry', as well as operate other interactive Bible-websites. Bible Wiki also maintains the associated Bible Wiki blog, which focuses upon more expository content from the website-administrators.
