Main topic: Wiki farm

This Category: NeoWiki 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 NeoWiki in the appropriate field of its infobox template
b. 'tag' a word within the prose of the article, eg. {{tag|NeoWiki}}
c. add [[Category:NeoWiki]] at the bottom of its edit box.

Category: NeoWiki — a 'NeoWiki' is the collective name used to describe MediaWiki-powered wiki sites; with hosted subject matter primarily including video games, anime and / or manga, comics, TV shows, entertainment, or other similar hobbies. All NeoWiki wiki sites are displayed with a custom skin called AdBird, and are hosted at Neoseeker (all wiki sites being a sub-domain of Neoseeker.com, e.g. GTA.Neoseeker.com), who in turn are owned by Neo Era Media, Inc. (founded 1999), from British Columbia in Canada.

Neoseeker promotes itself as an alternative to Wikia. Whilst it is true that NeoWikis are free to create, free to host, and free of enforced politics, with no annoying pop-ups, 'less' advertising, and claim to "have a strong focus on our community"; it would appear they are a valid alternative to Wikia. However, it is crucial to note that unlike Wikia who primarily use the free-to-share Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike (CC-BY-SA) license, Neoseeker are diametrically the exact opposite, in that every wiki site must agree to sign over copyright to its parent company, Neo Era Media, Inc.[1] One major and reassuring advantage over Wikia (originally, https is now also used by Wikia since their rebrand to Fandom) is that all NeoWikis are accessed by the 'https' SSL, or 'Secure Sockets Layer' secure connection protocol, as certified by Cloudflare Inc ECC CA-3 from San Francisco. It is also important to note that in order to create a new wiki site, one must be a Neoseeker registered user (which includes confirming a valid e-mail address), and then logging-in before being allowed to create said new wiki site. However, existing NeoWiki sites may be set to open edit, to allow IP editors.
