Rare Wiki is a wiki that is dedicated to covering Rare Ltd. and their franchises (except Banjo-Kazooie and Conker, as in-depth coverage of these two franchises can be found at Jiggywikki and Conker Wiki respectively). It was founded by Results May Vary on February 14, 2019. Almost immediately after the wiki was set up, Results May Vary forked the content from the Rare Wiki on Fandom (with the permission of KPH2293).
The Rare Wiki on Fandom was founded in early 2007 by members of the Super Mario Wiki, specifically to move over Banjo and Conker content from the Super Mario Wiki. At the same time, the Super Mario Wiki community merged the articles into a Banjo-Kazooie and a Conker series article respectively. In April 2011, the series articles were deleted from the Super Mario Wiki following a change to the coverage policy that no longer allowed for any Banjo-Kazooie and Conker coverage.
A majority of the articles on Fandom's Rare Wiki were either Donkey Kong, Banjo-Kazooie, or Conker-related. Rather than retain these articles (save for game and series articles), Results May Vary decided to delete them and safely integrate the information to the Super Mario Wiki, Jiggywikki, and Conker Wiki respectively. This occurred around the time when Donkey Kong Wiki (www.dkwiki.com) had its content merged into the Super Mario Wiki.
Despite Rare Wiki technically being a fork of its Fandom counterpart, Results May Vary considers them to be different wikis because of how many articles, templates, and content were deleted during the merge. This is unlike Jiggywikki, for example, as most of its main content was ultimately retained, albeit rewritten.
