Welcome to Wikia (formerly Wikicities). This page details the Wikia wiki portal in the English language (found at www.Wikia.com) which is used for the administration and management of the entire Wikia project.

Wikia offers free hosting for a community to build a free content wiki-based website, using a unique, heavily modified and customized version of the MediaWiki wiki engine. Anyone can create a Wikia wiki, subject to the terms of use and Wikia creation policy.

Support on both the technical and community aspects of running a wiki community is provided. You can discuss your proposed wiki or contact us for further information.
