[[PynchonWiki]] has been restored (not by me). I don't agree with your decision to delete it or that we can't include meta-sites within this index. If these were several unrelated, independently-operated sites with the same topic, I could see how a category would suffice, but in this case, the were several related sites all managed by the same entity. It's not quite the same as Wikia, but that is an example of when a broader site has a listing, even though it's pages may not be editable. Yes, I should get off my lazy butt and create entries for the individual wikis, but even when I do that I think we still should include the meta-site in the index.

Hi Sean, I am seeing friction between [[YiFei]] and [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&diff=next&oldid=173390 your edits] and I am not getting it. Look forward to your thoughts.

:Mark, see [[User talk:Zhuyifei1999#MediaWiki namespace, test editing and edit summaries|here]], and the section immediately above in my talk page. And may I remind you that [[YiFei]] has created friction between at least two other WikiIndex sysops (and no doubt other sysops and editors) during my big C sabatical. I really don't want to be spending time here trying to fix numerous cock-ups to the MW namespace (which have knocked out WikiIndex access due to either database or config errors), nor trying to fix the nigh-on 40 un-needed semantic properties caused by blatant test editing to [[Template:Wiki]]. | :Mark, see [[User talk:Zhuyifei1999#MediaWiki namespace, test editing and edit summaries|here]], and the section immediately above in my talk page.
