Wiki Entityballs Español, known simply as Entityballs, was a polandball wiki in Spanish which sought to create articles about objects and entities outside the polandball canon. It was always conceived and managed by Renatinho.
History
Fandom Era
In January 2021, Taxcymus imposed the “National Legislation” in Polandball Raras, which prohibited making food, objects and fictitious countries in the form of “ball” to give a more serious touch to the wiki. This upset Renatinho (at the time, UN CRACK LISTO), who ran against Taxcymus and against Raras' “National Legislation”.
Thus, Renato founded the Wiki Entityballs Español on Fandom on April 6, 2021, which accepted the same articles as Polandball Raras before the National Legislation. The wiki presented a lot of creative freedom, allowing to do almost everything in the form of “ball” or other forms of Polandball, for example, there was a “vacacow” (cowcow) article. Entityballs allowed elements or chemical compounds, foods (not to be confused with brands), animals, objects in general and wars or historical (or fictional) events.
According to Renato at the time, the wiki was created to “earn Polandball's respect”. The wiki mascot was Eball, a white ball with a red E in the center (in 2023 its color would change to cherry).
On April 17, 2021 Renato made a blog on Wiki Natiospheare, in which he announced his wiki and wrote that “We will make a revolution”. In response to this, some users of Polandball Hispana, mainly from PCPR, would create an alliance called ARRIBAWPH, which would attack Entityballs, while it would be defended by Renato and Hispanic (at that time anonymous).
With all this, Chevy1958 of PCPR got admin on Entityballs and published an “Reforme Anti-Desmadre”, which would remove articles related to wars and those that could already be on Polandball Raras, in addition to banning anonymous users. This annoyed Renato and he restored the Polandball Raras pages, but Chevy1958 was deleting them, which made Renato lower his admin permissions and block him.
Meanwhile, DudemanTheDude, despite having supported ARRIBAWPH, would create an English version of Entityballs together with Renato, where they allowed Renato's original rules, but this English version of the wiki quickly fell into oblivion.
On August 21, 2021, Entityballs was eventually shut down by Fandom.
Miraheze Era
On February 10, 2023, Renato recreated Entityballs on Miraheze, with laws allowing to be made balls of stuff that were forbidden on Polandball Hispana, Polandball Raras and other wikis. Entityballs started allowing articles about objects, atoms, viruses, bacteria, food, animals and alternative wikis, examples of these were “carrocar” (carcar) and “agualiquid” (waterliquid).
Entityballs was also established as a colony of Polandball Raras after giving HispanicJulio the bureaucracy and administration. On February 13, Entityballs changed its color from red to cherry, according to Renato to differentiate the wiki from Polandball Hispana.
On April 3rd a debate was opened about changing the wiki. Renato wanted Entityballs to be part of the hispanic polandball wiki community, but HispanicJulio suggested changing the Entityballs rules, as he did not like the idea of Entityballs allowing “animal balls” and thought the wiki would work better in a more serious way as an alternative Polandball Raras with fictitious companies. Renato didn't like that and suggested changing the name to “Ultrarraras” but Hispanic didn't like the idea. Hispanic wrote a blog on Polandball Hispana on the subject in which he said “It would be better to change the rules for Entityballs or even, more drastically, delete it”. This comment really scared Renato.
Entityballs bureaucrats were Renatinho, DudemanTheDude, Taxcymus and HispanicJulio. The latter two would also be representatives of Polandball Hispana and Polandball Raras respectively. GaboSovietico were also an administrator.
During one September, users such as Frante del Sur and Wilipanda joined, both of whom would make pages of dubious quality, especially Wilipanda who would make pages that made no sense at all.
On January 16, 2024 Renato created a blog where he announced that he was canceling the wiki. Renato ended up canceling the wiki on March 24, 2024 because of “inactivity, lack of interest and lack of sense”. The wiki was eventually closed on April 14, 2024 by HispanicJulio, ending with 94 archives, 57 articles and 796 edits.
Controversies
Some users criticized the wiki for its freedom to consider objects or animals as part of an alternative Polandball canon. In April 2023, the topic of Entityballs was somewhat discussed, being defended by Renato.
In a Discord discussion on April 3, 2023, between Renato, Hispanic and Ivih, Hispanic mentioned “Monomonkey” (literally, monkeymonkey) sarcastically as a character that could appear within Entityballs, since the wiki allowed animals. Because of this, Renato started to defend himself with “leave the trauma with Monomonkey” when they talked bad about Entityballs, which would later be used as a meme against Renato. The phrase “leave the trauma” (deja el trauma) and the Monomonkey character became memes within Polandball Hispana.
On October 7, 2023, Hispanic generated with articifial intelligence an image of a countryball-shaped monkey, which would become the new Monomonkey image. That same day, Hispanic created the Monomonkey article on Entityballs as a joke, but Renato at the time became angry and accused Hispanic of vandalism for that act, asking Taxcymus to block him for “vandalism” and “making fun of him”. Renato also said he was leaving Polandball Hispana because of that page, but it turned out to be a joke of his own. This caused some users to use the meme “Adiós” for a certain amount of time when Renato got angry.
