== naming places that host lots of wiki ==
 
I think I messed up with [[Near-Time]] and [[StikiPad]].
They are technically not wiki -- they are [[WikiFarm]]s
that allow lots of people to set up lots of wiki.
So ... to be consistent with what people seem to already be doing,
(such as [[:Category:TaoRiver]] and [[Pbwiki]] which redirects to [[:Category:Pbwiki]]),
should we "move" (rename) them into the Category: namespace, a sub-category of [[:Category:WikiFarm]] ?
 
I expected the people who set up Near-Time and StikiPad -- obviously familiar with how wonderful wiki are -- to have a prominent link to a wiki holding FAQs about that host.
I am a bit surprised that not only is there no prominent link, I can't even find an obscure link.
I'm starting to suspect -- maybe there is no wiki about Near-Time or StikiPad?
