Non-English wikis
These are sites that serve the same purpose as this wiki, but in a language other than English. They are also unofficial (i.e. not hosted by or affiliated with ArenaNet or the official Guild Wars 2 wikis).

Criteria for inclusion
This page lists only notable fansites, i.e. those that meet one or more of the criteria below.
- Official Guild Wars sites with a Guild Wars 2 counterpart.
- Has been strongly recommended by members of this wiki's community.
- The page has been suggested on the talk page.
- The community has expressed consensus that the site is worth adding to the main list.
- The community continues to find that the site is active, maintained, and relevant for inclusion.
- Has been highlighted by ArenaNet for its purpose or activities related to Guild Wars 2.
Other considerations
- Each site listed must have a dedicated Guild Wars 2 section.
- We do not link to any guild pages per se. We do link to them, however, if they prove useful for the community as a whole.
- We do not include every possible fansite, because there is too little value to the community in presenting a long, unstructured/unvetted list.
- Although popularity (as measured below) is an important tool for determining relevance, sites must also remain up-to-date. Two useful measures of popularity are:
- Being in the top ten suggestions from Google, e.g. GW2 recipe search
- Being highly ranked in Alexa (at least at rank = 1,000,000), e.g. guildwars2.com
Other notes
- Suggested sites will remain on the talk page, even if they are not selected for inclusion above.
- Some sites that appear popular (see above) will sometimes be left out of the list, if they do not remain current.
