WikiCity Guides was a project designed to make communities accessible, defining each not just as a dot on a map or a collection of statistics, but as a chorus of raucous, opinionated citizens falling in love with their hometown all over again. Much like Wikipedia, WikiCity Guides is a free wiki, and anyone can contribute. However, WikiCity Guides is different because it is designed to promote local community, commerce, tourism, and everyday life within the towns it serves - thus welcoming content that it typically not suited for Wikipedia.
WikiCity Guides was formerly one of the largest MediaWiki in the world with nearly 13 million articles on record. As of January 2012, the entire site returns a 404 error (apart from the homepage, which displays 'hello world!').
