A WikiIndex entry is a page that has encyclopedic information on it. A well-written entry identifies a wiki, wiki person, wiki software application, or wiki idea; summarizes that topic comprehensively; contains references to reliable sources; and links to other related topics. Most entries consist of paragraphs and images, but they may also be formatted as stand-alone lists or tables. These lists or tables are also considered entries for WikiIndex's purposes.
What it should contain
A WikiIndex entry should contain a description and brief history of the wiki, in order to provide a relatively neutral account that can survive the wiki's going defunct.
