Wiki Spot, (sometimes stylised wiki spot), co-founded in 2006[1] by Philip Neustrom, was a non-profit, member-supported effort dedicated to helping communities use and maintain wikis – a wiki farm.
"We provide the means for communities anywhere in the world to initiate, maintain, publicize and fund wikis. We provide a trusting home for wikis through our WikiSpot.org service, encourage development of collaborative software, and promote adoption of the wiki as a tool for enriching communities".
Wikis with community benefit can create wikis free of charge, including any Creative Commons license they want. See the Wiki Directory for a list of Wiki Spot wikis.

The site had a building community guide.
All of the city wikis on Wiki Spot were migrated to the LocalWiki project and Wiki Spot was slowly shut down, existing now only in an un-editable form. The Wiki Spot founders went on to create the LocalWiki project, and years later cofounder Philip Neustrom co-founded Encycla (Encycla.com).
