I helped create the Elantris one. I know the basics and I read wikipedia obsessively. :)

I love wikipedia...

Is the Elantris wiki a public one?  Or just something tha Brandon used with a few people?

It's a couple of pages on wikipedia, that myself, SE and Ookla The Mok whipped up. All the good bits are by me, etc. Brandon refused to get involved, thinking it to be unsightly for the subject of a wiki to get involved in it.

Ah, so you created the wiki page on wikipedia, but you have not set up your own wiki...

I was confused.

I have a wiki on one of my sites, but it's not a very good one.

I'm currently coding my own Wiki, probably won't be much better then the one on SE's site but I don't need an overly complex one for what I'm going to be doing.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

well, the one I have actually isn't THAT bad. It lacks some functions like adding extra pages easily and that sort of thing. Just some bugs.

So are you hard coding your own wiki?  I've heard that flex wiki (or something like that) is free, and easy to set up.

I wonder if there is some free wiki out there that you can just go and play in.  I wanted a place where I could try something.

Well, I feel ignored. I edited it for parallelism, so it would flow.

Not that you are discussing this anymore, but I felt it worthy of note. After all, anything involving me is.  ;D ;)
