WikiCity Guides provided a city wiki for every city. It's a collection of on-line communities where anyone can contribute stories, photos, opinions, and local events! Find things to do, places to visit, share local history, discuss issues within your community, or post a free classified ad in the local WikiCity Guides Marketplace.

Officially launched on June 18th, 2009, WikiCity Guides makes towns accessible, defining each not just as a dot on a map or a collection of statistics, but as a chorus of raucous, opinionated people falling in love with their hometown all over again. WikiCity Guides is an on-line publisher designed to promote local commerce, community, tourism, and everyday life within any of the 22,000 United States of America towns it serves. It serves these communities much like an on-line newspaper, yet as a wiki, any of its readers are allowed to contribute content. Even in its infancy, with over 13 million pages, WikiCity Guides was formerly one of the largest wiki in the world with nearly 13 million articles on record.

Originally searchable by USA state and USA city, as of January 2012, the entire WikiCity Guides site returns a 404 error (apart from the homepage, which displays 'hello world!').
