Not that I'll ever get around to it, but how do you start a Wiki?

Here's a good place to do free wiki's:

http://www.wikicities.com

They run off of mediawiki and all that jazz.

You might do what Kef did, and join WikiCities. They provide free wikis, based on MediaWiki, no less.

The other way is a bit harder. By which I mean a lot harder.

On that note, myself and Ikipapa are starting a Sonic the Hedgehog wiki, where we also hope to...host rotating avatars. I'm pretty sure wikis host Php, right?

Um, you've got it backwards many wikis run on PHP, not the other way around.

If you're using a free wiki provider, don't bet on being able to upload any custom PHP scripts.

No, seriously, less spam would be good. Say it with me: "If you don't have anything useful to add, don't say anything."

You have to request a wiki on WikiCities? You can't just press a button to open a wiki? No wiki for me, then. Too impatient.

It said it might take a week until your wiki opens. And THEY have to approve it.

It took me about a day to get my wiki approved. I left it the first day.

Hard work starting a wiki, even after you get it.

My wiki has been created:

http://rct.wikicities.com/wiki/Main_Page

I started it on Sunday, so it's mostly contentless. I hope you enjoy it either way. :mrgreen:

I still haven't gotten my confirmation email. Hmm...
But we started one already, so it doesn't matter.

I eagerly await the day when every single webtoon ever has a wiki.
