The '''WikiTourBus''' is a special free tour bus which takes {{tag|Wikis reachable by WikiTourBus|a number of coach tours}} around the [[wikisphere]]. The TourBus project was an {{tag|WikiIdea|idea}} created at [[MeatballWiki]] as a way of linking up like-minded [[:Category:Wiki People|wiki folk]] with their like-minded [[wiki]] sites, in a {{tag|WikiCommunityBuilding|community building}} initiative. Like all good bus tours, the places where the {{tag|TourBusStop|bus stops}} is important. | The '''WikiTourBus''' is a special free tour bus which takes {{tag|Wikis reachable by WikiTourBus|a number of coach tours}} around the [[wikisphere]].

Each TourBus route is unique, focusing on a specific [[:Category:Wiki Topic|wiki subject matter]], and its bus driver is key to the smooth running of the bus tour and its stops. Any [[WhatIsWiki|wikis]] who are not part of the WikiTourBus project, but whom have a desire to join, can post a request at [[Meatball:WikisInNeedForBusConnections|wikis in need for bus connections]] at Meatball. Wikis may either join just one TourBus route, or many. | ||
Some commentators have suggested that the WikiTourBus is merely a 'WebRing' for wiki. Whilst the TourBus concept may ''appear'' to be similar to a WebRing, the TourBus project is unique in that it is a more <u>inclusive</u> project of mutual co-operation – one where wikis on the TourBus scheme actively encourage readers to take a trip from their own wiki and look at other similar wikis. It is important that all wikis on the TourBus project actively encourage and maintain mutual links and activity between other wikis on their bus route; those who don't may be asked to leave the TourBus project. :( | Some commentators have suggested that the WikiTourBus is merely a 'WebRing' for wiki.
