Hello, Welcome — Welcome to WikiIndex :-)

WikiIndex aims to build bridges between wiki communities. We hope that you will enjoy browsing and editing this wiki.

Our goal is to make an index of all wiki sites. We appreciate your help in our ongoing quest.

We prefer real names, however, they are not compulsory. We are glad that you have chosen to register.
If you know of any wiki not already listed in this index, please use add a wiki to include it here on WikiIndex.
Please help us improve our existing entries, especially our stubs. Our community portal lists a few other ways to help.
You might like to browse our frequently asked questions (FAQ), or our help pages.
Use the sandbox to practice editing, you can't hurt our wiki. And please remember to fill in the edit summary for all edits.
If you think an admin should do something, please leave a note at: category talk: Active administrators of this wiki.

Your contributions and your ideas are greatly valued. Thank you!

For

The WikiIndex 'wiki community' is far more valuable than the WikiIndex host computer. Help new people get acquainted with WikiIndex by welcoming them, and giving them some useful links and hints.

Usage

Place {{Welcome}} -- ~~~~ on the new person's user talk page (not their personal user page itself). An additional short personal typed note is always nice too, and gives extra depth and emphasis to your welcome!
