Is Pikipedia part of Wikipedia, or like it? IAMAHIPO_o c o l o r 00:59, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * It's actually part of Wikia, which does use the same scripting as Wikipedia. It's sort of like a united group of wikis. Sign up for one wikia and you'll have a user account usable in all of them.


 * Mediawiki is the software used, i.e. the whole setup. Wikipedia and Wikia, along with Wikibooks, Wiktionary, etc., use Mediawiki.  Wikia is a "Wiki farm", probably the most popular there is, where this site is hosted.  Wikia was partly founded by the founder of Wikipedia, so they are very connected.

Yay, I love wikipedia :D IAMAHIPO_o c o l o r  02:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
