The O.C. Wikia is a free source of information about the Television Show The O.C.. The site is a wikia, meaning that anyone can contribute, including you. We hope that we can build the largest database on TV around.
Looking Around[]
A better way to explain The O.C. Wikia is to call it an encyclopedia. There are several ways of reaching the articles on The O.C. Wikia and they are all designed to make it as easy as possible for you too see what you want to see.
You can start browsing by clicking on one of the links on our Main Page. From there you will be able to click on further links to access information. All our pages are interconnected by links which allow you to go to other pages on other information.
Another way to look around is to use the Search Box. Type into the search box as you would on any search engine. Below the Search Box is a Google search box which allows you to search the web.
If you are not looking for a specific article or you just feel lucky, click on the random page button.
WARNING: The O.C. Wikia contains spoilers on episodes of the show. If you have not seen an episode and you do not want to know what happens, we strongly suggest you browse with caution. We will only allow articles about episodes to be made once that episode has been aired in the United States.

Wiki[]
The idea of a Wikia is that everyone and anyone can contribute. Some people do not like this idea as they believe that it is too open and therefore unreliable. With this information in mind, there are hundreds of wikis including the Wiki Encyclopedia Wikipedia. We ourselves have 935 articles.
An important thing to remember about the Wiki system is that the genuine, good users far outnumber the disruptive users and that however much vandels try to destroy the work of The O.C. Wiki, we can replace their damage with minimum effort. On the other side of the coin, misleading articles can always be corrected because of the Wikia system.
The founders of The O.C. Wikiadecided to make this project a wiki because we wanted to get all The O.C. fans involved. We hope that you will join us and help us make this a database to be proud of.
