'''Private''' [[wiki]]s require a [[:Category:LoginToEdit|login]] with a specific [[username]] and password (usually e-mailed by the [[Founder|creator]] and / or [[owner]], and are usually '{{tag|ByInvitation|by invitation}}' only) – before any pages, including the front page, are displayed. [[WhatIsWiki|Wikis]] are automatically included into this [[Special:Categories|category]] by the use of [[template:Private]]; and may also be included by changing the <code>|status = </code> field of the [[template:Wiki]] infobox to <tt>Private</tt>.
'''Category: Private''' [[WhatIsWiki|wiki sites]] with a {{tag|Wiki status|status}} of '<b>private</b>' require a [[:Category:LoginToEdit|login]] with a specific [[username]] and password (typically emailed by the [[Founder|founder / creator]], or the [[owner]], or an appointed [[staff]] member; after [[:Category:ConfirmEmail|confirming your email address]]), and are usually '{{tag|ByInvitation|by invitation}}' only; before any pages, including (though not always) the [[Wiki main page|main, or front page]], are displayed, and thus read and / or [[edit]]ed.
{{WikiStatus}}
 
Private [[wiki]] article pages here on [[:Category:All|WikiIndex]] are automatically included into this [[Special:Categories|category]] if the wiki article [[:Category:Infobox template|infobox]] is generated from the {{Template|Private}} template; and it will display the [[:File:Private.png|pink 'Private Wiki' logo]].  Alternatively, if the majority of the standard information about the private wiki is known (URLs [even if private], logo, [[:Category:Wiki language|wiki language]], [[:Category:Wiki engine|wiki engine]], [[:Category:Wiki license|wiki license]], database dump file location, etc), and our default infobox from the {{Template|Wiki}} template is used, simply change the <code>|status = </code>&nbsp;field of the infobox to '''<tt>Private</tt>'''.
