Last year saw more [[Brand TLD|Brand TLDs]] head for the exits as companies sent termination notices for a variety of strings. From [[.intel|industry]] [[.symantec|heavyweights]] to [[.newholland|heavy industrial]], [[.metlife|financial]] [[.esurance|services]] to [[.rightathome|consumables]], eighteen companies initiated termination of their custom TLDs in 2020. In many cases, only the mandatory NIC domain was active in the abandoned domain space.
 
  
On the inception of the .brand TLD program, a large number of companies applied for strings for trademark protection purposes. Companies continue to struggle to find a purpose for their brand TLDs, with [[.creditunion]] being a notable exception: the registry has over 500 registered domains serving credit unions, credit union service organizations, and businesses with a significant nexus to credit union activities.

Where to start

Getting started is as simple as requesting an account, which will be approved as long as it does not appear to be intended for spam or malice. Then, make sure to read our short content guide to get a feel for what belongs in the wiki. You may also want to have a look at some data source suggestions on where to find reliable data. That's it, happy editing!

Current Focus

Our focus this season is: ICANN History. Our community is working together on surfacing information from ICANN's history, including going over its documents, blog posts, Working Groups (including the already great article on Working Groups!), and all other relevant information that can help us understand how ICANN arrived where it is today.
