Category:Wiki lists: Difference between revisions

chirobob The "root category" of the wiki is Browse. This category is a direct child of Browse and it contains different ways of listing wikis. If and when this category is cleaned up, it will only contain categories that explain a system for listing wikis (these should probably in turn contain categories that are actually applied to wikis.

Here are subcategories that are correctly placed here:

• For Browsing:
  • All - The least picky category of all. Every single wiki that's not "Inactive".
  • Wiki Age - This contains categories for the founding date of the wiki, like "FoundedIn2005" and so on.
  • Wiki Edit Mode - This contains categories describing who is allowed to edit the wiki.
  • Wiki Engine - Wikis run on wiki software. This is for categorizing them that way.
  • Wiki Language - This contains categories describing the primary language(s) of the wiki.
  • Wiki Status - This contains labels for "how the wiki's community is fairing".
  • Wiki Topic - Wikis have content, remember? What topic(s) does the content fall under? (This category has hundreds of subcats that probably need to be turned into their own tree.)
  • Wiki Location - Categories for describing a wiki's connection to geographic places.
  • Wiki Size - How many articles does the wiki have? Categories like LessThan10, MoreThan10, MoreThan20, and MoreThan50.
• For Editing:
  • Unknown - Wikis should get this when their page needs to be added to particular kinds of Unknown categories in the above Browsing categories.
  • Wikis to add - For wikis that have a page here at WikiIndex, but need the Wiki template added, or have the template, but the information hasn't been filled in yet. Make pages with nothing but the URL for a wiki... and add "{{add}}", or use the new wiki form on Community Portal so that the wiki's page will show up here.

WikiProject:Wikis to Add lists a bunch of raw wiki URLs. Please help us move each one to its own page here using Add it to WikiIndex! . That should automatically put the wiki in the "All" category. Thank you.
