WikiIndex:About: Difference between revisions

* '''WikiIndex is not an encyclopedia''' – If you've seen [http://wikipedia.org/ Wikipedia.org] you'll recognise the MediaWiki software that this site uses. Wiki software allows you to create pages and interlink topics very easily, but here we are interested only in creating pages of a particular type; we are not building a full encyclopedia. That's what [http://wikipedia.org/ wikipedia] is for. (And it's very good at it. Check it out if you haven't done so already!) On this wiki, every regular page (i.e. every page in the main namespace) is a page describing a wiki or a wiki person. Generally, administrative "meta" pages like this one, which provide supporting information about the task of building WikiIndex, are in [http://www.wikiindex.com/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&namespace=4 the "project" namespace], so people wanting to browse by using the "random page" button will find wikis or people, not instructions or discussions.
