History

Inactivity and closure (2014–2018)

In 2014, Animal Crossing New Leaf Wiki became inactive due to a subscription expiry caused by a change in Wikispaces' policies requiring a fee for non-educational wikis,[1] leading to the wiki requiring reactivation by one of its organizers. However, the wiki never was reactivated, and it closed on July 31, 2018 following the decommissioning of Wikispaces sites.[2]
