Well there seems to be a disagreement as to whether the example list of City Wikis should be alphabatized or in order of which one has the most articles, etc. I think alphabatized makes more sense because if we try to keep them ordered by article count, this page will have to be modified a bunch of times. I'm guessing that the IP 69.237.198.2 who is countering my edits belongs to someone who manages or contributes to DavisWiki since the article count method favors putting DavisWiki first. Ironically enough, alphabatizing them puts Bloomingpedia first. I don't want to start a big fight over "I want my wiki to be first because its better" so I'll leave it the way it is for now until we can have more discussion about it. -- Suso (2005-08-18 15:54 GMT)
I suggest merging the individual city wiki articles to this one, as I doubt many will satisfy WP:WEB. -- Karnesky 01:32, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Kawana removed the links to the city wikis themselves and I'm not sure why. Not having them on this page relies on them being listed on the article for the city and that may not always be the case. -- Suso 23:54, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi, this is not an article, this is a collection of external links. -- Kawana 09:14, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
The links to the "just being started" wikis were removed because they, in and of themselves, don't indicate the notability of the wikis in question. That requires substantial coverage in third party sources. Since anybody can start a wiki, the existence of a wiki is not enough to establish the notability required for inclusion in Wikipedia, something that became apparent as the creator of a Los Angeles wiki and New York wiki tried to insert links to his brand-new wiki. A bit of investigation turned up more than one New York wiki, at least one (nywiki.com) being defunct. So how do "we" choose which to include? The obvious answer seems to fall back on the Verifiablity and Reliable sources policies. Anything else seems to be a form of linkspam. Pairadox ( talk) 23:39, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

WikiLou.com is a wiki about St. Louis, MO. It currently has 2,128 legit content pages, nearly 20,000 edits, 1,671,341 page views, and it was founded 11/1/2006. Please consider it for this list in the future. -- Mijunkin ( talk) 19:47, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Portland, Oregon's wiki has less than 500 entries after well over a year. Does that really count as one of the largest city wikis? Dentonwiki has over 600 after 4 months. What counts as a large number? Andral ( talk) 07:53, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
I would like to propose that we restore and update the general list of city wikis which was removed last April. As has been pointed out above, WP:Notability is not at all a requirement to be included in such a list (since we are not creating separate articles for each wiki, but merely documenting them on the existing 'City wiki' page).-- Pharos ( talk) 15:31, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi I suggest adding my wiki Yellpedia to the list. Yellpedia is one of the largest wikis in the world with over 10 million pages. We uploaded the entire United States Yellow Pages to create start(stub) pages for everyone to come edit. Yellpedia was the Semantic Mediawiki wiki of the month for May 2013.
