Internet Wiki Resources

Everyone knows wikipedia.  In fact, why am I even bothering to add it to a list of wikis?  I guess so that I can avoid the inevitable "HAY WHEREZ TEH WIKIPEDIUH?" comment...

Anyway, this place is full of elitist assholes who will remove your edits EVEN IF IT'S HELPFUL.  Also if you should happen to create an article, it'll promptly be added to the list of Articles for Deletion unless you can suck cock enough to become one of the elite assholes who will remove other peoples edits.

In short: This used to be a cool place till a few snobs fucked it all up.

Now, if you're one of those people who insist every word in the bible was handwritten by God, then you probably don't like the wikipedia very much. 

These people HATE wikipedia, and so they've pretty much made their own version that is "Free from political correctness" which sadly makes them every bit as bad as the assholes they hate so much.

Instead of trying to keep everything totally neutral and unbiased (which is hard to do when you have a bazillion editors), they want it to be biased, as long as the bias is towards America and Christianity... 

Expect to see lots of vandalized pages here.

This is a wiki for various free and open source programs you can find on the internet.  If you're looking for the cheap-ass solution to a problem, this would be a good start.

After Stephen Colbert Called for Wikipedia to be vandalized repeatedly, I think he got into a little trouble.   So now as a way to keep his kids off the Wikipedia lawn, they've given them their very own wiki to scribble in, deface, and reword for more truthiness...

The Uncyclopedia is pretty much useless for anything but strange bizarre humor.  If seeing totally Fucked up articles sounds like fun to you, then THIS is your heaven.

I've seen quite a few funny pages here, but for every funny page is about 5 unfunny pages.  It's like digging for gold in a septic tank...

This is the main page for one of the chan imageboards wiki.  It's pretty barren as far as front pages go, but there's content to be seen if you're willing to go digging for it.

Most of this stuff is about 4chan memes.

This is a site that lets you make your OWN wiki... I've never used it, but it's supposed to be extremely easy to use (and probably easy to fuck up as well)

This is an unusual wiki... Basically, anytime someone comes up with a cool project, they write up the details, put it on the internet and this place will link to it (or copy it, I'm not sure).

Another specialized Wiki, this one is for YTMND memes.  A lot of these are stolen directly from Somethingawful or 4chan, but a few are original.

Still, if you're confused about something, this is the place to look.

Yet another WIki.  I keep finding these all the time.  This one is related specifically to the Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS, but it has a little PSP info too... mostly it's about homebrew, hacking and piracy.

This is another sort of wiki, but this one is more personal... Rather than having everyone edit everyone else's articles, you get to write your own stuff and let everyone else read it and rate it on how useful it is.

It's more of a blog sometimes than a wiki, but it's still got some useful stuff in it.

This is the wiki for everything about Futurama... It also mentions the future of Futurama, including the upcoming straight-to-DVD movies, and new episodes starting in 2008...

This is the main page of wikibooks.org, which is basically open source textbooks.. This could be very valuable if the information is trustworthy enough.

In some ways, I think Wikipedia tries too hard to be the primary resource for stuff that it really shouldn't be... This site would be much better equipped to handle the task.

Hopefully this isn't run by a bunch of snobs like wikipedia...

This isn't really a wiki....but it's sorta like a wiki in the concept of asking for help and getting it from random people on the internet.

It could be useful

Another wiki resource, this is along the lines of Instructables... it teaches you how to do certain things.

Very helpful for the DIY types...

Another wiki, this time, it's basically the wiki version of the famous "Jargon File"...

On a sidenote: Bears are still America's Number 1 Threat

Yet another Wiki (they're EVERYWHERE).  This time it's about Open source software and a documentary/move that is going to be made about Open Source software.  The "Sue me First" article should be amusing.

This was unexpected... I was searching for something about an old TV show and BAM, here it is... a wiki dedicated to TV shows...

This could be interesting...

Yep, it's a wiki for people who want to invest money... This is either a good idea or a very VERY bad idea... I don't know which, since I Don't invest

Yet another Wiki I've stumbled upon... it's mostly a hacking/security wiki, but there's lots of useful info in here...

This is kinda cool...it's a wiki for flash... Supposedly open source though I'm pretty sure some of it is stolen from some other web sites.... line rider is in here for example, and I KNOW that's not open source.....

Still, if you like flash, you'll love this

Another Wiki resource for Open Source and freeware programs...I don't think this one looks as good as the other one I've seen, but it never hurts to have more than one place to look for stuff like this

This is a wiki for various web pages, sort of a way to find out more info about sites (like stumbleupon)... It's mostly website reviews written by the people who visit the pages, but if there is no entry for a webpage, it'll actually visit the page and grab some basic info to get the article started...

I wonder what it says for trailfire.com?

I don't guess this is strictly a wiki... it doesn't use the regular Wiki software, but the concept is similar and the concept is what I'm interested in here.

The idea is simple: you can ask a question, and an expert will answer... the answer stays on the web for anyone else to see so that the more questions are asked, the more they're answered and the more complete the resource is...

In that way, submitting a question (that hasn't already been asked) is a way of adding to the database...

This isn't strictly a wiki either, but the concept is similar... Basically, whatever it is you're expert at, you make a video describing how to do it, upload it, it gets featured and people take notes based on YOUR knowledge...

Looks like they've got quite a few categories.. everything from how to keep your horse happy to how to patch drywall...with a few attempts at humor thrown in such as "how to be the perfect girlfriend"...

Looks like this one bit the dust. I'll leave the marker here until it goes completely under.

Another Wiki, and made to address Questions you might have as a newbie trying to run linux...

Another wiki, this time for people who are interested in using a "fabber"... which is like a printer only instead of doing a 2D representation, it builds the object in 3D....

Some build the object by spraying plastic, and others use lasers to remove material from a block... I don't have one, but I'm adding these wiki pages as I run into them..

Another Wiki, this one is for fans of Pokemon...  Apparently there's enough to talk about here to warrant over 5000 articles (even though there's less than 500 pokemon types).

Yes folks, we have another wiki... for Filesharing, Copyright, Cyber Liberties, sort of an anarchists cookbook wiki... or something... I dunno...

If you're worried about the future of the internet, this MIGHT be worth checking out....

Now this is pretty much the biggest joke encyclopedia there is.  It gained a lot of fame after the "Jason Fortuny" incident (look it up) and it's also really poorly funded.  Those two things combined make this a very "iffy" website.

If this appears to be "down" just wait a day or two and try again, especially if it's near the end of the month.  I think when they run low on their bandwidth allotment they either shut off all pictures or else they just shut the whole thing down for a day or two.

Yep, it's another Wiki... this time it's all about the University of Massachusetts Amherst...

Not all that useful to ME, but someone out there might need to know, especially students...

Hey Hey! the Wiki's just keep on coming! I am guessing this is the atheist's wiki... or the answer to the Conservapedia...

This isn't really a wiki (in the traditional sense) but it's got the spirit of it.  Basically, you can make up a video to explain how-to in 5 minutes and post it where everyone can see...

I hope this catches on, because sometimes a 5 minute video is worth a thousand words...

Another linux related Wiki... I don't mess around with useless eyecandy, but if I did, I'd sure want help with it when it screwed everything up.

Here's your help for when you screw everything up.

Another Linux based Wiki, this one allows you to get more information on a variety of Distros which could be the best idea they've ever had for a Linux wiki...

This only LOOKS like a copy of the wikipedia. The difference is, this is a version of the wikipedia that avoids technical talk. PLAIN ENGLISH is the language here...

It might be useful to read these articles over the technical ones if you're not totally familiar with the subject.

This is a wiki to allow people to write unbiased reports on various products. Unbiased? GOOD LUCK! If this gets as popular as wikipedia you can expect the companies to come in and make their own entries look good, and other people's entries look bad...

Do we REALLY need a wiki to explain "Furries"? Apparently so... Though it's probably more to make them feel "normal"...

Dressing up as animals and really pretending to be one is not normal... Anyway, everything you NEVER wanted to know about Furries is here...

Hey Wow, it's a wiki all about the Java Bittorrent Client Azureus...

Lots of people don't like Azureus because it's java.  I happen to think it's not a bad client and kinda neat actually.  Especially neat since there's a linux version as well as windows. 

Anytime I can use the same program on either OS it's a plus for me...

It's all about Nintendo.  The games, the systems, everything... I'm not THAT big of a Nintendo fan (my first Nintendo Console bought by me was a DS Lite) but this has the potential to be cool...

How to make your own Internet TV box...Basically, all the info you'll need to know on how to use your computer to capture video, edit it and then publish it to the web or whatever...

Basically, how to be your own studio...

A wiki to tell you how to set various things up on your computer...

Every time I think I've found the last wiki possible, I find another.  This is a wiki for a traffic shaping thingie... you know, for those network admins who need to ensure there's enough bandwidth for the important stuff by limiting bandwidth to the unimportant stuff?

If there's another use for this I don't know what it is.

And Damn if I haven't run into ANOTHER wiki... this one is for software... You can find out about Open source software, freeware, and other software for the various platforms (Linux, Mac, Windows)...

If you're using linux but still want to use windows applications you NEED wine... this is the wiki for Wine... Helpful tips on what programs they got to work, what programs don't work, and so on are given throughout this wiki...

Hard to believe I took this long to find this wiki.... actually i've just never needed it...

And here's a wiki for people who play Dungeons and Dragons or whatever other RPG...If you're a DM/GM this probably has a lot of useful stuff for you.

This is another Linux wiki, but it includes information on how to make your own distro and other neat things...

I'm not sure how reliable this is (it's a wiki, so anyone can edit it without even being fact checked) but it's supposed to give people a way to see information that the government might not want you to see... 

On that premise alone it's interesting to look at... but again, take everything you read with a grain of salt until you can see proof with your own eyes.

This is a wiki for a cross platform Audio library and toolset.  I don't know if it's open source or what, but it'll be interesting to see what happens with it.  Right now it looks like it just got started up...

Every time I think I've just about found every wiki in existence, I find another. This is another wiki for linux users who want to use a window manager called Openbox...

Here's a wiki page for how to turn your xbox into a linux machine...

Yep, another wiki... Another LINUX wiki... Seems like Linux and Wiki's go hand in hand... This is for the Avant Window Navigator...maybe you use it? Maybe you don't...

This should be the end of this trail (but it might not be)... it's a wiki full of wiki's! I mean, if you're looking for wikis for whatever topic, this page should help you find it (if my trail hasn't helped you)...  Check it out...

A wiki for people who don't understand shit about Fruity Loops (or FL Studio as it's now called)... Unfortunately this is not a free program (cheapest version goes for $50) but it's also very full featured and confusing, which is why you need this wiki...

I'm trying out the demo, but I don't know if I'm going to ever be motivated to produce anything with it...

This probably goes down in history as the smallest wiki ever... I mean, 6 total articles and that's it?  Maybe there's some more to come?  BTW: It says "mywiki" but I'm not sure who exactly this was made for...

A Wiki for the MLDonkey P2p software...

This is just some guy's wiki (Paul Swanson? Any relation to the TV dinner guys?)... I guess in Alaska having a wiki constitutes a social life? (Shrug)

This is a wiki for the OLPC or "One Laptop Per Child".  Originally called the $100 Laptop, it has developed past that range, but still costs under $200.  I think it's a great program and hope that it succeeds.

A wiki for video tutorials on a lot of subjects.  None of these seem to be hosted on this site though so it's really a wiki of links.

Hey, here's a cool thing... it's a site where all the leaked news can be put in one place.  I would also hope they block any US Government agencies from editing this or else it'll just get filled with more lies.

a wiki for people interested in running multiple Operating systems (looks like mostly linux/unix style) on one computer.

A wiki for Eventghost. (I have no idea what that is but I THINK it deals with remote control of your appliances).  I guess this would be very helpful if you wanted people to think you were home while you went on vacation.  Does anyone really fall for that though?  Just a little watching of your house would reveal nobody ever leaves and nobody ever arrives. Right?

Wow! a Wiki for all things Castlevania. Need the relationship of Maria Renard to Richter Belmont explained? This is the place you want to check out. 

This is an interesting wiki.  It's not for writing about real life stuff.  It's for writing about a fictional solar system.  Maybe one day someone will use all of these in a video game?  Maybe someone will use these when writing a sci-fi novel?  Who knows?

If you've ever imagined what life would be like on other planets or imagined your perfect solar system, this could be your chance to write it out for everyone to admire. 

This is a wiki for the Man Code of Conduct.  I'm guessing this is for those people who wonder about whether something is acceptable for guys to do or not to do.

I personally do what I want, and if it's against the code, who cares?  This is humor.

This is a page to sort of point out flaws in wikipedia.  Apparently if you try to do that ON wikipedia, they'll just ban you and revert your edits...

Another Image board related wiki.... this one sees fit to save all the random crap that appears on those boards...

This is a wiki for the Valve Developers.   If you're interested in making new maps for your favorite source engine game, this would probably be a good start.

Hey Hey! It's a wiki for Team Fortress 2! AWESOME! I can't wait to read up all about my favorite class (Used to be Demoman, but lately has been Pyro).

Hard to believe I haven't hit this wiki yet.  This is a wiki to fully explore the depths of the Star Wars universe. 

However, if you haven't seen the movies, beware...this will spoilerize nearly every movie (and maybe a few books too).
