Microwikis

From ShireWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

There are three wikis containing important information regarding micronationalism, or micronationry.

You are now on the wiki sponsored by the Imperial Republic of Shireroth. This wiki imploded while the Imperial Republic was suffering through serious computer difficulities, but has since been put back up, and is in the process of being restored.

This is the progenitor to the wiki sponsored by Micronations.net, which was at:

http://mnn.mncentre.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page, but was deleted with the fall of micronations.net

The MNN-wiki saved an amazing amount of material, which might otherwise have been lost, and may be lost again. (sigh)

The other, and appearantly unrelated wiki, was begun May 27, 2006, by Monsterfurby. It is located at:

http://micronations.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

Being a wikia-wiki, it is supported by advertising.

All three wikis have great similarity. All three have large variances in their editorial policies.

All three once chose to bill themselves as MicroWiki.

There are reasons to prefer one above the other, however, as they are not connected or managed by the same group or system, this offers members of the community at large an opportunity to post in more than one location, perhaps protecing their work from the ravages that occasionally wander the internet.

It should be noted for the record that this wiki was the first Microwiki. In so doing, the author does not belittle the great accomplishments of the other two.
