On this day, six years ago, GalaxyTM opened the Toaru Majutsu no Index Wiki. Back then, it was just a small wiki that's just beginning its steps into the world of fan-made wikis, managed by a couple of like-minded people. Wikia is still using roughly the same layout as in Wikipedia, and the wiki still uses the logo on the left as a symbol of the first big effort to make a wiki based on the Toaru Majutsu no Index series.

And... here we are.

The wiki has undergone countless changes to the point that the past image of the wiki when it was opened on September 19th, 2009 seemed unrecognizable. Layouts have been revised over and over, people have come and gone, and much toiling has been done in order to keep the unseen heart of the wiki beating.

I came to the wiki at the fourth day of the wiki's existence, and I occasionally look back at the time when there were far fewer people around, especially after GalaxyTM has left the wiki to more active contributors. Of course, it felt a bit lonely, but the wiki has moved on past that stage. In this week alone, the wiki has been visited 103,000 times ([[Index|sounds familiar?) and talked about by probably much more. And that's not through my efforts alone.

To everyone who has been helping in posting and revising content in this wiki, give yourself a tap on the back. Each contribution has become a big help in keeping the wiki alive for all this years, and I'm looking forward to seeing more people visit and contribute to the wiki in the future.

By the way, the wiki has undergone some new changes again just recently. I personally have plans to change the Achievement badges some time soon (hopefully before NT14 hits), so please look forward to that!
