I hope it makes a positive change?

There are currently a load of errors. Presentation is not ideal either to be honest. I get the material design approach but there's too much going on and it's overall a burden for reading. Layout isn't as great either, aligning content around the center allows for easier reading on the wikia; now, I have to dart my focus across the other end of the screen and back.

I will be sticking with the wikia for now. I hope it is still updated, or at the least, kept available.

Log in or make an account, go to rs.wiki/Special: Preferences, go to the gadgets tab and check the box that says "Change the page to a fixed-width layout and increase the font size for easier reading".

Wikia won't be updated any more.

Would be nice if it was released without bugs and fully updated.

Half of the pages does not work(shows no data). eg.
https://runescape.wiki/w/Money_making_guide shows empty tables
https://runescape.wiki/w/Skill_training_guides "Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination"

Clicking the edit button gives an "Error loading data from server: HTTP 502. Would you like to try again?" every time.

...

Hope it will be fixed soon :D

I remember that there was a RuneScape wiki on some sort hosted by Jagex which seemed to parallel the one at Wikia, and a couple years ago there was an announcement that support for it was ending.

Although there is presumably no real connection between that one and this, it's still noteworthy that there was one before.

Pretty much said the same thing on the Wikia "Yew Grove" page announcing the move in-house. The benefit here is that anyone wishing to edit anonymously will still have to register as a user, and any attempt to vandalize real content can actually be fixed in a relatively short time; neither of which was true of the "JagexWiki". ;)
