This is the about page for the Obby Wiki itself. For information on what an obby is, see Obby.

The Obby Wiki (or OW) is an independent and community-run wiki for all information and archives about Roblox obbies that anyone can improve on and contribute to.

If you're looking for how to contribute, featured obbies, and new up-to-date information on obbies that just released, check out our home page. We think it would be perfect if that's you. We are not endorsed by or affiliated with Roblox, read our disclaimers page for more.

Anyone is free to create an account and begin editing. We recommend new contributors start by reading our Contributing guide as it covers the basics on creating and editing new articles, as well as their eligibility requirements.

Sub-genres

As seen above, the Obby Wiki has collectively documented 430 obbies, making us the largest obby database ever. Obbies are categorized into multiple sub-genres. Below is a list of some sub-genres you can start browsing from.

Our goal is to document every single eligible obby possible. If you want to, you can also use the Obby Wiki as a discoverability platform for Roblox obbies. You can browse by tiers, allowing you to find as many obbies within your skill range as possible. For example, every documented Tier 11 obby.

Why make an account

You can make an account on the Obby Wiki at any time. In order to use features such as editing, tracking your contributions to the wiki, or participating in discussions, you will need to log in and create an account. This ensures that we can keep a high quality bar for all our contributors and articles.

When you make an account, the information you provide will be collected appropriately. If you use a third-party provider, then information shared between that provider and the Obby Wiki will be used solely to either create your account or log you in. Then, your account from that provider will be connected with your Obby Wiki account, allowing you to login with that provider at any time. Only data necessary to link your accounts and log you in is retained. The Obby Wiki does not retain access tokens, you can read more about this in our Privacy Policy.

Minimum Service Commitment Date

The Obby Wiki remains committed to keep the service running/operational towards January 1st, 2027 at the minimum. We plan to remain operational much longer and until there is no demand at all, but at the bare minimum we will remain in service to at least that date. You can trust us with your time and contributions. We're always bumping our minimum commitment date, so check back later!

For Developers

The Obby Wiki has multiple open source projects that MediaWiki developers may be interested in. There is a whole sub-page about this at About/for_developers, which you should visit for more details. For a quick list of projects you may be interested in, see here:

For MediaWiki developers
A few projects may be of interest for developers in the MediaWiki scene:

  • WikiWire, a powerful CI automation tool to sync Git repository files to live on-wiki MediaWiki modules and templates. It also has the ability to sync configuration pages under the MediaWiki namespace. WikiWire was developed specifically for our use-cases, but can also benefit others!
  • Our modules repository, also known as the OW Shared Modules & Templates repository, or OWSMT for short, is the shared repository where we store all the raw source code to the modules that power the wiki. Since many of them are written in Luau and minified, then automatically uploaded via the aforementioned WikiWire tool, their source may be unavailable for viewing elsewhere.

For Roblox Developers

FAQ

Is the Obby Wiki hosted by Fandom?

No, the Obby Wiki is not on Fandom nor is it hosted by Fandom. The Obby Wiki is independent and a direct and modern replacement to the old and outdated Fandom 'Roblox Obby Wiki'. Unlike the legacy obby wiki on Fandom, we begun with more strict content guidelines and quality expectations, as well as more technology and less artificial limits that were imposed on the (legacy) Roblox Obby Wiki and the (legacy) Roblox Obbies Wiki.

Why not Fandom?

Not being on Fandom was a deliberate choice and no mistake. While self-hosting is far more complex and almost unheard of in the Roblox wiki scene, it allows for much more possibilities that just are not possible on Fandom. If we were on Fandom today and they wanted us out, they could delete the entire wiki without a moment's notice. In fact, this did occur to one of @Wolf1te's previous projects on Fandom, and was one of the defining early reasons to not choose Fandom.

Where is the Obby Wiki hosted?

The Obby Wiki is an independent wiki powered by MediaWiki and hosted on DigitalOcean. Use our referral code to get $200 free in credit for your first 60 days. After you use your $200 credit, or after 60 days, whichever is first, the next $25 you spend will completely go to our hosting bills. Get some free credit and help the wiki.

What is the difference between obby.wiki (fka. obbywiki.com) and obby.fandom.com

The Obby Wiki (obby.wiki) is the website you are currently viewing, while obby.fandom.com is the legacy Fandom wiki. The legacy wiki is old and outdated with no acting administrators. Additionally, it was mainly focused on tier obbies. The (modern) Obby Wiki also covers tier obbies extensively, but in addition to every other known sub-genre of obby. The Obby Wiki is the largest database of obbies ever, with more obbies documented in the tier obby sub-genre than the legacy wiki has in total articles.

For editors switching over

Editors switching over from obby.fandom.com should learn to use the Obby Wiki's customized features such as:

  • The create new article button from our Article Flow tool to create an obby page boilerplate in seconds, rather than manually. You can start with just a few questions to get a customized article template from which you can then iterate and improve on.
  • The widely used {{ObbyGameInfobox}} template.

For readers switching over

Readers switching over can expect benefits such as:

  • Enhanced organization and structure powered by Cargo, providing many filters to find an obby by (Special:Drilldown)
  • Greater coverage, more topics allowed, greater depth
  • No advertisements or trackers
  • A customized experience fit directly for obbies and discovery, not just a generic Fandom wiki
  • Official resource status: many obbies and their developers recognize the Obby Wiki as the only wiki documenting their work

The majority of the Obby Wiki's userbase are solely readers, Welcome! No account is required to read or view articles and other information.

What are the differences when migrating over from the Roblox Difficulty Chart Obby Wiki?

The Roblox Difficulty Chart Obby Wiki 'merged' with the Obby Wiki in the sense that all efforts and resources have been moved to supporting the Obby Wiki, and in turn the Obby Wiki houses DCO-specific architecture which both matches and exceeds the functionality of the old wiki. Articles have to be created manually following the Obby Wiki's best practices. New contributors should grow accustomed to the Obby Wiki rather quickly. If you want a few example pages, check out the Difficulty Chart Obby sub-genre category.
