About Trash Wiki!

Trash Wiki is a radical inclusionist wiki for rescuing articles from Wikipedia's deletionism. It is free to use and has no advertising. Trash Wiki is a kinder, gentlier wiki with a friendly community. See what is happening today at the recent changes. The project was started by User:Admin on 6 December 2019 and so far we still have to rescue articles. You should be able to actually either sign up or anomalously edit articles.

How does this project work?

Articles that are under discussion on Wikipedia are automatically copied here by editors like yourself. If the article is retained on Wikipedia the article is still to be remained on Trash Wiki. If the article is removed on Wikipedia we don't have to do anything here. So if an article is not deleted we won't delete the article here. But articles are often relisted for deletion again soon. You are welcome to sign up and help with the project.

It's okay (encouraged even) to edit articles here once they have definitely been deleted on Wikipedia (unlike DPv1), but it's advisable to wait until articles have been definitely deleted on Wikipedia. Like that you can still go into the history of an article and find your edits.

Click on the random page link to get an idea about what kind of stuff gets deleted on Wikipedia. A lot is great quality articles written by people who care and spent a lot of time on them, including research and adding references. Good luck with helping to expand this project, happy editing!
