This Category: Wikidot.com is either empty, or sparsely populated,
and needs to be 'populated' with articles, stubs (and / or other categories)
relevant to the subject matter of this specific category.

Include an article page in this category via one (or more) of three methods:
a. add Wikidot.com in the appropriate field of its infobox template
b. 'tag' a word within the prose of the article, eg. {{tag|Wikidot.com}}
c. add [[Category:Wikidot.com]] at the bottom of its edit box.

Wikidot.com is the worlds' largest wiki farm,[1] running 120,000 sites. Their mission is to provide free and professional wiki site publishing, collaboration, and communication solutions to anyone who needs it and wants it.

Each Wikidot wiki site gets a sub-domain on .wikidot.com (e.g.: mywiki.wikidot.com). There is also a possibility to map a custom domain-name for free (e.g.: mywiki.com – if previously registered by the wiki site owner).[2] One can optionally allow Wikidot to display advertising on their wiki site and get 80% of revenue. Wikidot features include: RSS import/export, private RSS feeds for users (notifications and watched items), RSS for page changes and forum, customisable themes (every item can be styled with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)), advanced forum for each site. Custom page hierarchies, searching, advanced page edit locking (full/section/append), blocking users and IP addresses, and private messages between users. Wikidot users must now confirm their email address when registering for an account; each user can then create (own) up to five (previously twenty) Wikidot wiki sites, and be a member (editor) of an unlimited number of wiki sites. Wikidot also has a great feature, available on most Wikidot wiki sites: the top right of each site has an 'Explore »' option (sometimes substituted with a small aeroplane icon), and this will open a new random Wikidot site, from anywhere in the world, on any random subject, in any different language.

Wikidot have a number of various official support wiki sites for visitors and their registered users. Wikidot Community (found at http://community.wikidot.com), the Handbook (Wikidot) (at http://handbook.wikidot.com), their open sandbox is Wikidot Sandbox (http://try.wikidot.com, previously at http://sandbox.wikidot.com), Wikidot Packages (http://packages.wikidot.com), the Forum template (at http://forum-template.wikidot.com), Free Wikidot Themes (at http://themes.wikidot.com), Wikidot Code Snippets (at http://snippets.wikidot.com), Iron Giant (a project to create a collection of free Wikidot applications, at http://IronGiant.wikidot.com), and Multiplayer (to bring together gamers old and new, in a fun and competitive environment, at http://multiplayer.wikidot.com).
