The following wikis are powered by the '''GetWiki''' wiki engine.
'''GetWiki''', as well as GetWiki.net, uses W3 recommended {{tag|XHTML}}/{{tag|CSS}} standards.  GetWiki is a {{tag|PHP}} application using a {{tag|MySQL}} database, and more information and resources are available on [[GetMeta]], a [[wiki]] for the discussion of philosophy, science and technology, and support of GetWiki.


The homepage is at: [http://www.GetWiki.net GetWiki.net].  This is not itself a wiki, but [[GetMeta]] wiki is partly aimed at describing / discussing the engine.
The engine, {{tag|FoundedIn2004|founded in 2004}}, is a fork development of the [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] engine.  The main purpose of the {{tag|Wiki Engine|engine}} actually is to power [[wikinfo.org]], a website which forks the whole [[English Wikipedia]]!

''Instead of red links, GetWiki uses green links to point to articles which do not exist locally. When the user follows such a link, GetWiki tries to dynamically fetch it from the wiki designated as an external source (in Wikinfo's case, the English Wikipedia), renders and displays the article text. A local copy is created only if the page is edited. Effectively, Wikinfo therefore provides a transparent "wrapper" around Wikipedia pages which have not yet been copied.''  See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikinfo Wikipedia's page about wikinfo].
