The EditThis.info management and [[:Category:Meta|meta]] wiki is found at [[EditThis.info]]. However, it was discovered during September 2012, it became heavily [[:Category:Spammed|spammed]], and seemingly [[:Category:Needs love|neglected]]. As of December 2022, the site remains somewhat abandoned by their [[Sysop|system administrators]]. Furthermore, their MediaWiki software is old and outdated; still running {{Mw|Release notes/1.15|version 1.15.1}} ([[EditThis.info:Special:Version|r10]]). That being said, however, EditThis.info is still an active and fully-functioning [[wiki farm]] (albeit with the occasional hiccup in service), and as such, can still be recommended for users needing a basic wiki, who are competent with MediaWiki software, and have no desire for the latest 'bells and whistles' offered by the very latest versions of MediaWiki. Furthermore, enhanced log-in safety is provided due to all pages being protected by utilising '{{Cambridge-Dictionary|http}}s' {{Cambridge-Dictionary|ssl|SSL}}, or 'Secure Sockets Layer' secure connection protocol URLs. | The EditThis.info management and [[:Category:Meta|meta]] wiki is found at [[EditThis.info]].
