This Category: LocalWiki is either empty, or sparsely populated,
and needs to be 'populated' with articles, stubs (and / or other categories)
relevant to the subject matter of this specific category.

Include an article page in this category via one (or more) of three methods:
a. add LocalWiki in the appropriate field of its infobox template
b. 'tag' a word within the prose of the article, eg. {{tag|LocalWiki}}
c. add [[Category:LocalWiki]] at the bottom of its edit box.

LocalWiki, also iconised localwiki, is an open content, open source wiki engine compiled in Django and Python. LocalWiki projects are the opposite of today's bite-size, disposable web. They're informative, non-commercial, and built for the long term, by neighbors who simply love their communities. Originally known as Wiki Spot,[1] the LocalWiki project is being directed primarily by Philip Neustrom and Mike Ivanov, the co-founders of the Davis Wiki.

The LocalWiki wiki engine has a great feature – it has user editable maps, where every page has a real sense of place. These maps contributes to a rich, interlinked local resource, that gets better and better over time. LocalWiki has articles covering all seven continents of the Earth.[2]

LocalWiki is a United States 501(c)3 non-profit community improvement organization based in San Francisco County, State of California, United States of America. One of its former major supporters was wikiHow.

LocalWiki co-founder Philip Neustrom went on to co-found Encycla (Encycla.com).
