Welcome, مرحبا, Bienvenidos, Bienvenue, Willkommen to WikiIndex
we are endeavouring to build bridges between people in wiki communities.

Important notice: spotted a wiki gnome? Make sure you take special care of it.

Thank goodness not all countries are like Turkey!!! Cherish your wiki freedoms, join WikiIndex and highlight similar travesties.

We have 21,982 pages about wiki sites, wiki people, wiki software, wiki farms, and wiki ideas.

We strive to share wiki experiences, and encourage wiki folks to think about issues in the wiki community. We use structured data based on MediaWiki, the engine (originally for Wikipedia), of which we have lots of info about wiki software, with some differences.

Please visit our community portal, and share your ideas.

Welcome, 172.26.17.103 :-)
Please help build this wiki community by adding a wiki.

New to wikis? Unfamiliar with our MediaWiki software? Feel free to practice editing and experimenting in total safety in our community sandbox.

Does your web browser have the Universal Edit Button, a green pencil icon – UEB16.png – appears in the URL address bar indicating when a web page is editable, much like the RSS icon ExampleRSS.png. Download the extension for Chrome or Firefox

Want to help right now? Create a new article page for a wiki, or be brave and take a dent out of our 'Wikis to Add' list today! :-)

Annoyed by the anti-spam Captcha? Log-in to avoid it. :p

Want to see some wiki-awesomeness? Check out this fascinating creation!
