- Farm: Wiki.yt (id: 24661) — list of wiki sites (active and defunct) hosted on the Wiki.yt wiki farm, at WikiApiary.com (founded 2011), the wiki site for detailed information on all MediaWiki-powered websites
Wiki.yt is a small wiki farm created by Kasper Souren, aka Guaka. There are two main goals:
- Develop real social wikis
- Make money through advertising, hosting and consulting
These goals can be in conflict, in which case, goal #1 prevails.
Real social wikis
We want to provide a space that is currently not well covered. Wikimedia Foundation is too big and too bureaucratic, and Wikia is way too commercial and annoying for small wikis.
- Community before profit;
- Only ads on wikis where it's not inappropriate, (e.g. no AdSense on Veganwiki since it leads to ads for non-vegan products);
- 'Sensible' wikis are hosted for free.
Money
We make money through
- Professional MediaWiki consulting, including Pywikibot coding, system administration, development of extensions and MediaWiki spam removal;
- Quality MediaWiki hosting;
- Advertising where this does not have adverse effect on the community.
News
- 2013-12-24 — launched Deletionpedia.org v2
- 2013-09-12 — Nomadwiki, took over Cheap Travel Wiki
- 2013-05-09 — started Cheap Travel Wiki
- 2013-05-07 — 1. interfamily links, 2. Wiki.yt Google discussion group, 3. recent changes dashboard
- 2013-04-28 — set up Velowiki with shared user and interwiki database, later we'll merge some of the user tables of other wikis
We're already running several successful wikis
Hitchwiki is not on this server but is definitely a friendly wiki. Mirror.Hitchwiki.org will be on this server.
And then there are some less successful ones, possibly to be revived.
