I tried to do a forum search on this but too many filler results showed up, so which wiki overall is more reliable... the Elder Scrolls Wiki or Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages Wiki?

I've been viewing them both and TES wiki seems more streamlined (and is also easily viewable from my mobile device) and concise while the UESP wiki comes off as being very detailed but don't know if it's all correct. I'm new to the Elder Scrolls franchise so I wouldn't know which is more accurate.

Of the two you mentioned UESP is by far the better one. Like....BY FAR!!

The Wiki is complete and utter crap.

With regards to UESP though, just remember not to use the summary articles as sources. They often contain misleading or false information. Personally, I still use it because it loads faster than The Imperial Library and because I prefer the search function.

But http://www.imperial-library.info/ is your best bet for quality and reliability.

UESP. No contest.

UESP.net is not only more reliable, but also more detailed. I think it's the favorite here on the forums. It also offers much additional info on patches (also unofficial ones), technical stuff and many guides.


The Imperial Library also contains much controversial and speculative lore. The UESP contains mostly in-game facts.
