Note: If you're looking for TV Tropes, they're on the list at the bottom. To put them up as candidate for a Doorstopper is an understatement. Recently, organisations such as NIWA have spoken out against the commercialization that takes place on wiki farms, and have encouraged fans to set up their own websites. Corporations use wikis behind firewalls, the American CIA uses one to collate data among agents and analysts, and even publishers of dead-tree books use them to coordinate edits among authors, editors and copy editors.įan-made wikis are usually made on wiki farms, such as Miraheze or Wikia, or else are hosted on a preexisting fansite. Not all Wikis are on the major search engines, though. The encyclopedic wikis are collecting a great breadth of topics at an increasingly shallow level of detail, and the topic-intensive wikis are gathering all the details. The "wiki-sphere" is becoming a vast depository of information at all levels of detail.
Fan-made wikis sprang up to bring back the world of homemade sites with the added benefits of the wiki model. Schisms or differing schools of thought on the topic was another. A desire for greater detail on the topic than Wikipedia is willing to allow, for one. However, a number of factors kept Wikipedia from being a perfect replacement for the old system. The interest in hand-crafted "fan sites" waned. Rather than rely on a collection of sites each written by one person with questionable expertise, users could find most of the information they needed in an article written, edited, and fact-checked by an entire userbase of people with questionable expertise, but all on one easy-to-remember site. With the advent of Wikipedia, the playing field changed. All the stuff we know and love today - e-commerce, social networking - that came later. This was largely how the early Web was forged, in fact. Anyone with enough HTML savvy and a powerful enough interest in one particular subject could and often would create a site dedicated to it. In the early days of the Internet, there was a similar phenomenon, the "everything has its own home page" rule. Increasingly, in fact, there is a chance that someone already has put up a wiki for it. There is no area of interest, no matter how narrowly defined, where a person cannot put up a wiki for it and attract at least a few editors with similar interests.
