SwitchWiki, founded in 2002, was the precursor to WikiIndex

Being phased out by copying over any recent edits and putting a big notice saying the project has moved here to WikiIndex.

The project that WikiIndex is based on. Original idea discussion at Meatball:WikiIndex and Meatball:OneBigWiki.

This is where Local Names would be real helpful. If we had a local set of names to easily link, without the http:// . Do folks understand Lion Kimbro's CommunityWiki:LocalNames project? It took me several years and two intense conversations with Lion to grok. Best, MarkDilley

Tags are awesome, because the can easily fit into the text of a description about the wiki. SwitchWiki was an alphabetical flat list, that followed in the footsteps of the categorization happening at WikiWikiWeb.

Domain associated with this page: SwitchWiki.org.

The original SwitchWiki wiki is now no longer available, but the Internet Archive WaybackMachine at Archive.org stored a snapshot of 14 pages on 5 June 2004, its main page archive being here.
