Why this petition matters

Started by Jonathan J.

Unreal Engine is one of the most used game engines in 2020, and as with most software, it needs proper documentation. Epic games, the official maintainer of the engine, are also hosting a wiki that was previously used by the community to write documentation and tutorials, but at the moment the wiki is locked for editing, and it has been so for a long time.

The advantages of having an official and publicly editable wiki are many:

  • The documentation will evolve naturally, as it is written by its own users.
  • The wiki is likely to be maintained with a pace and quality that outperforms dedicated editors.
  • The flexible format of a wiki beats many alternative documentation platforms.
  • As the wiki is official, it is a natural and trustworthy source of information for new and experienced developers alike.
  • The quality of life for Unreal Engine users worldwide will without doubt increase drastically, virtually free of charge for Epic Games.

To be clear: the only thing we ask is that the wiki is again made editable, no less, no more.
