It's more of a "choose your poison" kind of deal.

wikia is the one with all the fan-made characters and fanfiction. That, and it's a huge piece of shit.

Wiki, every time.

>> No.7736138

Ten Desires is the crap one.
Also I usually avoid the wikia, it tends to get vandalised a lot and the staff doesn't care more about page hits than touhou.

>> No.7736143

Look at the two main pages.

If you can't figure which one is ok and which one is awful from this, I can't help you.

>> No.7736149

Both suck for different reasons.

>> No.7736151

Wikia is much better. You can make your own fan characters and propose them to ZUN to add them like the very well known Neko Scarlet.

It's hard. They seem to copy each other on many pages....

>> No.7736192

Wikia never allows individual wikis to close or to link to a new wiki, even after the community get the fuck away from this commercial shithole. For any wiki where there's a wikia one, and a non wiki-farm one, the latter is the good one.

The story:
It used to be just wikia. then when the Wikia owners added some harsh terms and conditions a ton of people jumped ship and created the wiki
They are very similar because the wiki started as a rehosted wikia, and the wikia cribs a ton of new stuff from the wiki.

....I am one of those guys.

The story is the same for any wiki that used to be hosted at wikia.
Jimbo figured that he was dumb enough to make wikipedia a nonprofit, he built wikia upon 'pedia's goodwill, then took frequent shits all over it.

You don't want to see interstitials about 3d sluts in your geolocated city when reading about touhous.

And because of the open licences, you can't move away from wikia. The wiki you start there are never yours to begin with, because lol free culture
