D.Gray-man Encyclopedia:About

About Us
D.Gray-man Encyclopedia is a wiki-based encyclopaedia.

This wikia is dedicated to the D.Gray-man series, hosted by Wiki, Inc. This series is written and illustrated by Katsura Hoshino; originally, the series was published weekly in Weekly Shōnen Jump, before entering a semi-monthly publishment in a different magazine related to the Jump franchise. It is now published monthly in Jump Square, due to the illness of the creator.

This wiki has been active since April 29th, 2008. The D.Gray-man series was released in 2004, and already showcases over 20 volumes, over 200 chapters, and over 100 anime episodes (as of April 2019). We aim to update this wiki as the manga and/or anime updates, and are constantly making improvements to the layouts, navigation, and content. We credit Narutopedia for creating our templates. We also do not take information from other fan-sites. We are an English-based wiki, which means that we do not allow any other language (our one exception is for original names, techniques etc.)

History
We were founded by Bon3z also known as ZeRO onApril 29th, 2008.

Due to inactivity by Bon3z, we held a contest to determine the new administrator. We found two newcomers to our staff list: Hlp922 and Shock Dragoon. This wiki gained new administrators over time. The wiki has become a central point of the D.Gray-man community through the invaluable support of all staff members, as well as our tireless editors and contributors, and we owe our thanks to the fans that make this site possible.

Future Achievements
While it is possible that the D.Gray-man series will soon come to a close, we aim to continue this wiki for all fans and keep it as a bastion of objective facts. We aim to remain relevant to fans and reinvigorate interest. We are constantly revamping the wiki and adding important updates, as well as new features for our readers, and we hope that we can remain a valid source of information for years to come.
