Beywiki is a Beyblade fansite that was opened on October 7, 2007 after being created in the span of 48 hours by the current webmaster, Bey Brad. Beywiki was pushed online with little content but was quickly populated by Bladers from all over the world. Within just a few days it became the world's most active Beyblade website.

Beywiki consists of two primary parts:

  • The Wiki, which functions as an encyclopedia for Beyblade. While the original project was set up to allow anyone to edit it, to avoid vandalism and to adhere to specific quality guidelines Bladers must now be approved by the editorial staff before they are permitted to edit the Wiki.
  • The Forums, which serve as a means of communication for Bladers all over the world. Bladers can discuss Beyblade news, strategies, customizations, along with chatting in several off-topic forums. The discussion for how to proceed with the Wiki also occurs here.

The ultimate goal of Beywiki is to not only maintain the interest in Beyblade among current Bladers, but also to spread Beyblade around the world to people that may not have experienced it. To that end, Beywiki formed the International Beyblade Association, a group dedicated to hosting Beyblade events all over the world in order to promote interest in Blading.
