This wiki advertises itself as "Official" in its pagetitles ([[MediaWiki:Pagetitle|[1]]], [[MediaWiki:Pagetitle-view-pagetitle|[2]]], and [[MediaWiki:Pagetitle-view-mainpage|[3]]]), but then says in its [[The Long Dark Wiki:About|about]] and [[The Long Dark Wiki:General disclaimer|disclaimer]] pages that <code>"''[The Wiki] is owned and hosted by Curse.com, and has no affiliation with Hinterland Studio Inc.''"</code> Hinterland has also said that they have no official wiki and the current wikis <code>"''...[receive] no contributions from anyone associated with the studio.''"</code> (Sources: [https://steamcommunity.com/app/305620/discussions/0/485622866444282174/#c485622866448726290 Steam discussion - The Long Dark - Best Wiki? - #19], [https://steamcommunity.com/app/305620/discussions/0/485622866444282174/#c485622866449154133 <nowiki>[ditto]</nowiki> #24])

As such, the term "Official" should be removed as it only serves to confuse and mislead readers. --[[User:LegendAU|LegendAU]] ([[User talk:LegendAU|talk]]) 02:15, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

:Hello! We'd worked with the team at Hinterlands Games back in 2013 while the game was still a Kickstarter. You can see the announcement they made about the wiki [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hinterlandgames/the-long-dark-a-first-person-post-disaster-surviva/posts/623984 here].
