AsianWiki is an online database focused on information related to Asian movies, television series, and celebrities, especially from countries like South Korea, Japan, China, and Taiwan. The site includes details about cast members, production crews, plot summaries, user ratings, and reviews.[4] AsianWiki began as a community-driven platform where users contributed data, starting in 2007[5].
History
AsianWiki was founded to cater to the growing global interest in Asian entertainment, especially with the rising popularity of Korean dramas and Japanese films.[6]
The website was built using MediaWiki software, the same open-source platform used by Wikipedia.
Alternative
In response to the growing demand for more versatile content management and different user experience, an alternative version of the website was launched using WordPress, named AsianWikis, its plural counterpart.[7][not in citation given] While AsianWiki[8] continues to use MediaWiki for its main database due to its structured and reliable nature, AsianWikis leverages WordPress for a more flexible design and easier integration with various multimedia formats.[9][not in citation given] This alternative site offers similar content but with a different layout and additional features like blog-style news articles and more dynamic content presentation.
Reception
As of August 2024[update], AsianWiki was ranked at number 25,495 for entertainment websites by Xranks.com.[10]
The website was given a positive review on connectioncafe.com.[11] Moreover, AsianWiki's community-driven model allows for a diverse range of perspectives and insights, adding depth to the coverage of Asian entertainment.
According to statistics from Similarweb, AsianWiki.com receives around 7 million views per month.[12]
