Template:Wiki Engine MediaWiki.org is the homepage of the MediaWiki software, the wiki engine software that runs this WikiIndex site. Originally designed for Wikipedia, now one of the most active and largest wikis, it is now also used extensively by other Wikimedia Foundation projects, along with many, many other independent wikis.

MediaWiki, written in PHP, is probably the most widely deployed wiki engine software. Some would argue that a wiki should be more simplistic, with fewer features; but the design avoids many of the clutter/feature-creep problems appearing in other mature wiki engines, and its success speaks for itself. MediaWiki has spawned many clones, the most notable being Wikia.

Here are the MediaWiki user forums. And this fellow found all installs of the code.

The wikis in this category listed below are powered by the MediaWiki wiki engine.

Template:WikiEngineFeatures

MediaWiki size information
add /Special:Statistics at the end of the URL – http://YourWikiURL.org/Special:Statistics (non-English language versions will automatically convert this to actual language). Dependent on software version, there is a number called "Content pages" or sometimes "pages that are probably legitimate content pages" -- use that lower number. Ignore the (often much larger) "all pages in the wiki, including redirects" number. We can also add MediaWiki listings to the http://s23.org/wikistats/mediawikis_html.php system which tracks various wiki stats.
MediaWiki wikiFactor information
go to the /Special:PopularPages page of the wiki – http://YourWikiURL.org/Special:PopularPages
