'''Kayak Wiki''', also stylised '''kayakwiki''', and latterly '''KayakWiki''', was available as two concurrent wiki sites.  The original site was {{tag|FoundedIn2001|founded 2001}},[https://web.Archive.org/web/20020225104331/http://www.KayakForum.com/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/guille/wiki.pl?KayakWiki] powered by {{tag|UseMod Wiki}}, and found at <tt>KayakForum.com</tt>.[https://web.Archive.org/web/20020106194740/http://www.KayakForum.com/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/guille/wiki.pl?HomePage]  The subsequent wiki site was {{tag|FoundedIn2006|founded 2006}}, powered by {{tag|MediaWiki}}, and found at <tt>KayakWiki.org</tt>; from 2007, this was separated into two separate language sub-domains, for {{tag|Wiki English|English}}[https://web.Archive.org/web/20070502111119/http://En.KayakWiki.org/index.php/Main_Page] and {{tag|Wiki French|French}}.[https://web.Archive.org/web/20070629204526/http://Fr.KayakWiki.org/index.php/Accueil]

The original home of '''Kayak Wiki''' was set to read only since 2006, when the content was moved to <tt>KayakWiki.org</tt> and set-up on {{tag|MediaWiki}} software, with its content released under the {{tag|Wiki Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike|Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share-Alike 2.5 license}} (CC-BY-NC-SA-2.5).  A key motivator for the move was that the original {{tag|UseMod Wiki}} site (with content released under {{tag|Wiki NoLicense|no license}}) on <tt>KayakForum.com</tt> got {{tag|spammed}} into oblivion.  The new system administrator put some effort in, and the content had progressed considerably on the newer MediaWiki site; including nice navigation structures, and image features enabled by the superior software.  However, it has more recently disappeared (2008 some time?); fortunately, the ''Internet Archive WaybackMachine'' at [[Archive.org]] has captured [https://Wayback.Archive.org/web/*/http://KayakWiki.org/index.php/* 653 urls for <tt>KayakWiki.org</tt>].  Perhaps it is lucky after all then, that the original UseMod Wiki site still existed for a while afterwards in read-only form, so the content is still available to be rescued, although this content was missing couple of years worth of edits!
