A '''vanity wiki''' is a [[wiki]] site that is used as a {{tag|personal}} {{Wp|vanity press}}, and may include [[:Category:Advertising|advertising]] (particularly self-promotion), self-deprecation, or attempts to become an internet [[:Category:Celebrity|celebrity]]. A vanity wiki can sometimes be a [[:Category:Bliki|bliki]]; used for [[:Category:Journal|journaling]], propagation of one's [[:Category:Ideas|ideas]] and [[:Category:Opinion|opinions]], etc. | |||
The term is by all means a {{tag|point of view}}, because it is more about the believed intentions of the [[:Category:Wiki people|person]] or persons behind the endeavour, and not about observable facts. So when anybody calls a wiki names, you know now what it means in this case. | |||
;''Examples | |||
