This {{tag|MediaWiki wiki farm}} has unique ways of allowing wiki [[owner]]s to control [[user rights]]; using their feature called the 'Control Panel'. Although free to host, all ≈1350 EditThis.info wiki sites are supported by on-screen [[:Category:Advertising|advertising]] from {{tag|Google advertising}}. | This {{tag|MediaWiki wiki farm}} has unique ways of allowing wiki [[owner]]s to control [[user rights]]; using their feature called the 'Control Panel'.

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 Furthermore, their MediaWiki software is old and outdated; still running {{Mw|Release notes/1.15|version 1.15.1}} ([[EditThis.info:Special:Version|r10]]).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]].

;''URL schema | |||
When the EditThis.info [[wiki farm]] was originally [[:Category:Wiki age|founded]], hosted wiki sites were located at a sub-{{Cambridge-Dictionary|domain}} of the main EditThis.info {{Cambridge-Dictionary|url|URL}}, as in: <tt>WikiSiteName.EditThis.info</tt>. As an example, for [[Vitripedia]], its URL was <tt>Vitripedia.EditThis.info</tt>. However, sometime in 2020, the URL {{Cambridge-Dictionary|schema}} for hosted wikis changed; from a sub-domain to effectively a sub-page. For Vitripedia, its URL changed to <tt>EditThis.info/vitripedia</tt>. | |||
