'''<big>wikiHow</big> – to do anything...''' — 'the world's collaborative how-to manual' that you can [[edit]], is an [[:Category:American|American]] series of [[WhatIsWiki|wiki sites]] for the creation of the [[:Category:Earth|world's]] largest [[:Category:How to|how-to]] manual.  Founded by [[Jack Herrick]][https://www.wikihow.com/User:JackHerrick] on 15 January [[:Category:Founded in 2005|2005]], all [[:Category:wikiHow|wikiHow]] wiki sites use the popular [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] software, but they are heavily modified to be better suited to a 'how to manual'. wikiHow also uses a [[:Category:Custom skin|custom skin]], and the wiki pages display [[:Category:Advertising|advertising]] from [[:Category:Google advertising|Google Adsense]]. A small number of custom features originally developed by and for wikiHow are available as stand-alone for regular MediaWiki sites, and there is a free and open source fork of wikiHow's MediaWiki engine from when it was fully free; see [[mw:Category:Extensions by wikiHow|information on MediaWiki.org about wikiHow]] for more info.
