The JorgeWiki also known as the B-KWiki is a wiki created by Paper Jorge and Turboo. It, originally had to do with anything from the Banjo-Kazooie universe but it has evolved in a site much like UnMario Wiki and Uniju Wiki.. There have been two B-Kwikis and they have both been run by Jorge and Turboo and admined by Super Mario Bros. The new Jorge Wiki is run by the same people with help from 2257.

History

The Wiki Begins

According to Jorge on the Link Jorge project website, he was originally going to create a website for himself in either June or July of 2009, however, he never got around to it. Finally, in September 2009, he teamed up with Turboo and created the B-KWiki at banjokazooiewiki.net. It seemed everything was going well, it was rather active for a new website. Super Mario Bros. has joined, and was given Patroller status on their wiki and Global Moderator on their forums, although he was later demoted due to inactivity. Another user, who's username was Xelaaredn, was also promoted to the ranking of Patroller. However, due to many complications in the database of the wiki, the B-KWiki crashed, and most content seemed to be lost.

Wiki Reborn

After a while, it seemed Jorge's idea would never come to fruition. However, in October 2009; Jorge, Turboo, and SMB (the latter tried offering B-KWiki a temporary home on his father's website) once again collaborated, and eventually, Turboo and Jorge recreated the B-KWiki as a child project of Link Jorge (Linkjorge.net) (other child projects of this are the Link Jorge forums, the Link Jorge blog, and the IRC chatroom #sandwich).

Super Mario Bros. was promoted to Sysop on this version of B-KWiki, and everything seemed to be going well. However, on 2 November 2009; early in the morning, SMB resigned from the B-KWiki. On that same day, Maria Thalia attacked the wiki, replacing many templates, pages, and images with vandalism, as well as creating spam articles as well. Jorge came on later that night, and soon repromoted SMB as well as promoting MG1 to sysop to counter the damage.

Maria Thalia Incident

Maria Thalia created her first troll-account the day after SMB had supposedly retired. SMB soon came back, and he and Marioguy1 tried to revert as many vandalized pages and mark spam pages for deletion as they could. It was then that Jorge came on and repromoted SMB and promoted MG1 to sysop. They blocked the vandals and deleted all the pages eventually stopping the spam attack.

However, later on that night, Maria came back with many more sockpuppets and luckily MG1 got there just in time to block her and revert the spam unfortunately she had already created numerous sockpuppets and was creating articles like mad. MG1 alerted Jorge, deleted many of the articles and blocked her sockpuppets. She then tried to impersonate several users, namely Grapes, Stooben Rooben, Super-Yoshi and Super Macho Man (as well as trying to impersonate SLNO on the chatroom). After all those sockpuppets, Twentytwofiftyseven, under the command of Jorge, installed Nuke and MG1 nuked all of the remaining articles finally stopping the spam flood.

Reconstruction, Destruction and Reconstruction

Later that November, Jorge had noticed the large amount of inactivity on B-KWiki and how he was beginning to be the only real one with contributions. Jorge completely deleted all old files and began a new wiki of its own, the Jorge Wiki which would consist of randomness and Mtn Dew. At first SMB was confused, but liked the idea and soon others joined in such as Master Lucario. Later, Jorge soon lost interest in that too and destroyed it all. About a month later, in early December, 2257 brought back the Jorge Wiki.
