Companhiaball

From Global Countryball Organization


Wiki Companhiaball is a wiki of Polandball-icon.png Polandball in Portuguese that collects articles from companies, political parties, YouTube channels, soccer teams and wikis. It is the Portuguese version of Companyball-icon.png Companyball and is inspired by it, but allows more content than the English version.

History[edit source]

Era ZackIV[edit source]

On January 8, 2020, the   Wiki Companhiaball was created by user ZackIV. The wiki was created, due to the pages of the companies (Companyballs) that were created by Kaneki Official in the Portuguese Polandball Wiki, as Faceblock. v Companhiaball was created in the inspiration of   Companyball. ZackIV started organizing the wiki initially, putting rules and so on. The first page was Rede Globoball, created by Kaneki Oficial.

On the same day of the wiki's creation (January 8), the user Aquiles Paraízo had just arrived in the community, and quickly started contributing, catching up with ZackIV (The leader and biggest user of the wiki), until he overtook him. But ZackIV won the race with 500 points. 1 day later, Aquiles managed to overtake ZackIV again, this time with 580 points. On the same day, Aquiles became administrator and was declared the winner of the competition.

Era Aquiles Paraízo[edit source]

The wiki started with new users like   FelipeRocha678, BlueMickey634, 5 MINUTOS DE IDEIAS INCRÍVEIS and Matheus Sampaio Correa (who would be blocked for being under 13 years old). The wiki won a mascot in a vote between which of four possible Cballs would be the official mascot of the wiki, and number 2 (the   purple colored one) became the winner, and is its official mascot to this day.

In February, it quickly reached 100 articles (with the WWEball page) and over 5,000 edits. It became the third largest companyball wiki in Fandom. In May it reached 200 articles and also   Companhiaball was featured on the   Companyball "about" page.

Competition with Raras[edit source]

  Companhiaball started to grow a lot and was coming close to surpassing   Polandball Raras, the   Spanish version of the wiki, in pages. Both wikis had just over 300 pages at the time.

  FelipeRocha678,   Polandball Raras' administrator, was afraid that   Companhiaball would overtake them in pages. In July 20 2020,   Felipe declared war on   Companhiaball and promoted a competition that consisted in seeing which of the two wikis would reach 1000 pages in the shortest time possible, this conflict was known as the Race for 1,000 or the Cold War of the Companyballs. Not only did this event lead   Polandball Raras and   Companhiaball into an unnecessary spiral of junk pages (short or meaningless pages), but it turned both wikis into a dumping ground. Both wikis accused each other of stealing pages from the other during the competition.

This absurd competition ended on August 13 of the same year when   Companhiaball came first. The competition caused some cracks between the relations between   Polandball Raras and   Companhiaball even after the conflict ended that lasted for the rest of the year.

After competition[edit source]

After the conflict,   Companhiaball started to focus on junk pages, trying to reduce several of them by adding infoboxes and other things. The administrator Gustavo Bitenkas added new rules and tips in this regard.

From November 11 to 23 there was a diplomatic conflict between   EUAAR and   Companhiaball, since the former accused the Brazilian wiki of having stolen its pages, so   EUAAR started to do the same. Aquiles, administrator of   Companhiaball, complained about this in a   Polandball Raras discussion, but users like Daniel el mexicano xd, Miramarball and Yopal were against Aquiles' message. On the other hand,   Felipe adopted a neutral stance. Although they eventually made peace, tensions between the two sides continued into December.

On January 10, 2021,   Companhiaball entered "the war against Ron". Between February and August 2021,   Companhiaball managed to create more than 100 pages, reaching 1400 pages. In July,   Companhiaball started to get very close to   Companyball in terms of relationships. Users like Lepano186 started to edit a lot on   Companhiaball. By the end of July, 3 pages were being created every day, which increased the number of pages considerably.

After the news from   Fandom that the wikis related to   Polandball were going to close, Gustavo Bitenkas and Aquiles Paraízo ended up making a plan to migrate   Companhiaball to   Miraheze and save the wiki. With that, on August 12, Aquiles (now known as Tankis2000) created the wiki on   Miraheze. On August 16, the   Fandom version migrated to the   Miraheze wiki.

  Miraheze Era[edit source]

On August 19, 2021, with the files saved in Miraheze,   Wiki Companhiaball was finalized and ready for editing. On August 22, Gustavo Bitenkas instructed all users to contribute to the wiki once completed. Former EUAAR member   Hispanic Empire even edited the wiki after almost 9 months without editing. On September 9, 2021,   Wiki Companhiaball, along with Portuguese Wiki Polandball, ended up being closed by   Fandom, being the end of   Wiki Companhiaball in   Fandom (lasting 1 year, 8 months and 1 day; 610 days).

Around August,   HispanicJulio proposed an alliance between   Companhiaball and   Polandball Raras, where links from both sites would be linked. This was finally done in December.
