On a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Statistics vast] wiki like [[Wikipedia]] a virtual community can form already around one page or one subject they are all interested in, write about, edit, discuss. Like [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braunschweig a page about a City], [http://www.braunschweig.de real communities] form [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Braunschweig virtual communities] and [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Braunschweig vice versa]. Naturally a bigger scope of Wiki community are the [[Special:ActiveUsers|active users]] of one Wiki. Beyond that there are [[:Category:WikiFarm|Wiki farms]] like [[Referata]], breading places for initially mostly small Wikis where the [[founder]] gets support from the community of the farm, synergies are established like the [[Volunteer Spam Task Force]] on [[Wikia]] where the individual Wikis are not so individual, rather like offices in a big building and You need only one user account to access them all. Others prefer to call one server for the development for many wikis a [[:Category:odd-wiki-hive|hive]] like in 'bee hive' which is a charming analogy like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anthill anthill] that illustrates the business of folks there but does not reflect that there is no 'queen'. The Wikisphere after all is the entirety of independent individuals and their co-laborations which kind of culminates or confluences in this comparatively small Wiki where it's [[Community_portal|community]] [http://meatballwiki.org/wiki/WhyWikiWorks endeavours] to build a dynamic hub for the multi language, international and increasingly complex Wikisphere. | On a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Statistics vast] wiki like [[Wikipedia]] a virtual community can form already around one page or one subject they are all interested in, write about, edit, discuss.
