Wikia - creating communities

There are over 5500 Wikia to explore. For a brief guided tour of a wide range of them, try the Wikia_tour.

Then, or straight away, you can go to the list of Wikia or read the Wikia descriptions to find one you are interested in.

Once at the Wikia of your choice:

• Search for content. Enter your search in the box in the sidebar. See help on searching.
• Follow links from page to page.
• Go to a random article. Click on Random page on the sidebar
• View what edits have been made to the Wikia from the "recent changes" link in the sidebar.
• Use your watchlist to track changes made to a particular page (only when logged in). Click my watchlist on the top of the page (or maybe on a sidebar if you have chosen a non-standard "skin"). See help.
• Find the pages that have a link to a given page: click What links here on the latter page. This works also for a page that does not exist (there may be links to it, which makes it extra useful to create it). The What links here button is also on the edit page on which one arrives when following a broken link. See also help.
• Use the special pages. Click on Special pages in the sidebar, then try, for example:
  • Browse the various categories. (Click on Special pages then on) Categories.
  • Find some pages people keep coming back to. Click on Special pages then on Popularpages.
