Wiki Spot, (sometimes stylised wiki spot), co-founded in 2006[1] by Philip Neustrom, was a 501(c)3 non-profit, member-supported organisation dedicated to helping communities use and maintain wikis, commonly known as a wiki farm.
"We provide the means for communities anywhere in the world to initiate, maintain, publicize and fund wikis. We provide a trusting home for wikis through our WikiSpot.org service, encourage development of collaborative software, and promote adoption of the wiki as a tool for enriching communities".
Wikis with community benefit can create wikis free of charge, including any Creative Commons license they want. See the Wiki Directory for a list of Wiki Spot wikis.
