- You may be looking for the wiki as it exists in the DWU or the homepage of this wiki.
Tardis Data Core, the Doctor Who Wiki, also known simply as "Tardis", is a large, fan-run wiki website created by fans of Doctor Who on the wiki-hosting website Fandom. Despite primarily being fan-run, various notable contributors to the Doctor Who universe have made contributions to it, along with it being officially recognised by the BBC through in-universe references.
History
to be added
In-universe references
Lady Peinforte
The Tardis Data Core was first referenced in the DWU on 2 May 2019 in The Blogs of Doom short story PROSE: Lady Peinforte, which referred to it as the "TARDIS Wiki", and had Lady Peinforte somehow access the wiki in 1988, describing it as a "place of secrets", from which she learned of many of the Doctor's secrets, seemingly in reference to the impossible amount of knowledge one could gain in-universe if they were to read the pages of the wiki. This source also seemingly claims that the wiki makes determinations of "canon", and that they treat Looms, along with the rest of PROSE: Lungbarrow as non-canonical, which is in stark contrast to the wiki's current policies stating that there is no canon, and that they instead rely on valid sources.
The Zygon Isolation

The wiki also made a minor cameo in WC: The Zygon Isolation, a Doctor Who: Lockdown!-original short. In this short, it appeared as a Google Chrome tab labelled "Tardis | Fandom" on Petronella Osgood's computer as she opened BBC iPlayer to watch an episode of Doctor Who.
Real world connections
Due to the sheer size and nature of the Doctor Who universe, various noteworthy individuals to its real world production are also contributors to the wiki, or at the least have acknowledged its existence. Contributors who are open with connecting themselves and their Fandom accounts are listed below, in alphabetical order based on last names.
