Who is really the one deciding the name?
On the page it was written "Index.Wiki is reserved by Top Level Design (the .wiki registry) and is available for use by this community if desired."
The discussion about that had not taken place yet. Decision was not made by "community". But the experimental(?) Clone is already under the domain index.wiki So, it is not only "available", it is in use. Not that I'm surprised.
Information about why the server move is hanging are not given to the "community", because nobody really cares about WikiIndex "community". Manorainjan (talk) 19:56, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- I apologize for being unresponsive and not supporting the community discussion about the ServerName. I'm still imagining that the ServerName discussion is in the future after the ServerMove, but there is no reason the community can't start the discussion any time it wishes to. I don't know how the decision will be made about the ServerName ... any suggestions?
- The wiki.index site is a testing version of WikiIndex where we can verify that all the needed extensions are installed and playing nicely with each other. It is not intended to be an immediate replacement for wikiindex.org ... it is just a convenient location for me to host the server during this testing phase.
- Again, I apologize for giving the impression that nobody really cares about the WikiIndex "community". The community is what's awesome about WikiIndex. Can we rebuild trust Manorainjan?

So awesome, that since 2008 You did not even add Your own wiki http://wiki.solseed.org/SolSeed to this index? Manorainjan (talk) 17:54, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
WikiIndex.wiki
- .wiki: This TLDomain is for Wikis. WikiIndex is a wiki.
- Index.wiki: We still hope to become an Index one time. It is our main objective.
- WikiIndex: We do not index just everything, only Wikis. Therefore the actual name has to be WikiIndex, the Index of Wikis (and all matters pertaining to Wiki).
- WikiIndex.wiki: This wannabe Index of wikis is a wiki itself, therefore the term wiki appears two times in the domain name.
org: This wiki is not actually organized or the front-end of any organisation. It could have been fully automated if anybody would have the competence to automatise most of the processes. The use of TLD .org is actually imposture. Bad enough that we got less then 4% of Wikisphere indexed and still calling it an index. the org-part is neither needed nor justified. It also does not speak to the new visitor or general surfer anything of use for them.
Not that .wiki would actually mean that it is an organisation or organized, but at least it implies, connotes sufficiently the collaboration of many. Manorainjan (talk) 18:45, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
