LyricWiki is a free site which is a single source where anyone can go to get reliable lyrics for any song from any artist "without being hammered by invasive ads" (emphasis on invasive, it has ads on the site for users who are not logged in).

LyricWiki contains lyrics to more than 1,214,000 songs on about 79,000 albums by more than 68,000 artists. The over 1.7 million content pages are categorized by artist, album, song-name, genre and hometown of band. Some songs also have translations.

This wiki was named the 'DreamHost Site of the Month' (DHSOTM) for April 2006, and was shortly thereafter featured on Digg and in a Lifehacker article.

LyricWiki is the largest MediaWiki on the internet other than Wikipedia (source).

Website was at LyricWiki.org, but is now hosted at Wikia.

Wiki size: 1,720,234 article pages see stats

Information on the wikiFactor

The actual wF is a lot higher than the given one, as the counter does not increase if a page is loaded out of the cache, which happens for approximately 50% to 90% of all pageviews, depending on which templates were changed beforehand.
