Wookieepedia, a vital Star Wars resource, faces controversy after a key editor's sudden departure. The departure led to Twitter unfollowing 4,000 accounts, including charities, fueling more backlash. Wookieepedia's official statement lacks transparency, highlighting a shift away from the fandom's support.

Wookieepedia, the most popular Star Wars wiki, appears to have entered an unexpected moment of crisis. It's impossible to overstate how important Wookieepedia, the fan-run Wiki, is to the Star Wars fandom. It's one of the largest Fandom sites in existence, with 193,050 pages and counting, and the site has even been frequented by actors and writers as well as general fans.

There's probably no better online resource when it comes to Star Wars, with Wookieepedia guiding viewers seamlessly through Legends and canon information. Even more impressively, over the last few years, the "Wook" (as it is often called) has become an important part of the online fan community in its own right.
