This site is a rehosting of the classic Roblox Wiki from 2012, on a fresh MediaWiki instance. We have plans to create new documentation and articles, using the existing platform as a base. We are still planning how and when exactly, but generally we would like to do the following:
 
* New branding
* New guides and resources
* Game design and technical writeups on classic places and models to teach people how they work and are designed
* Info on the current state of old Roblox, and guides on getting it set up so you can start developing games (with Novetus)
* Redesigned home pages to be more relevant (replace quick links to defunct site stuff with engine documentation)
* High quality screenshots and video recordings
* Make the website more mobile friendly
* Documenting the undocumented
* Probably more!
 
This project is being led by [https://realja.me realjame] with a few other people serving as co-editors, you can find everyone [[Special:ListUsers/editor|here]]. We hope this site will be a crucial resource to help people make new games for classic Roblox, or at the very least learn about Roblox's history. Thanks for visiting!
