Request a wiki
More actions
A wikicircles wiki starts with one person who knows a hobby well enough to seed it and cares enough to tend it early on. If that's you, propose it here.
What makes a good wiki topic
- A real hobby with practitioners — something people buy gear for, argue about, and get better at over time.
- Not already covered — check the directory first; if a close wiki already exists, contribute there instead.
- Broader than a single product — "espresso" works; "the Gaggia Classic" is a page, not a wiki.
Start a request
You'll need to be signed in, email-confirmed, and joined to Meta to file one. Enter the hobby's name and hit the button — you'll get a short form to fill in and save.
<inputbox> type=create prefix=Wiki requests/ preload=Wiki request preload buttonlabel=Start your wiki request placeholder=Hobby name, e.g. Mountain Biking </inputbox>
Your request becomes a page in the request queue, where an admin reviews it and — if it's a good fit — creates the wiki and makes you its first editor.
What happens next
New wikis are reviewed and created by hand, so there's a real person in the loop rather than instant self-service. Expect a reply on your request page or in the relevant community. Once it's live, you keep full editorial control of your wiki.
