Imposter? Are you freaking serious? How was I (a new WMF user) supposed to
know that there was another OhNoitsJamie somewhere in the 800 wikis
mentioned? Sorry about that, if I am indeed using a name that is used
elsewhere.

I suspect that this was posted not by OhNoItsJamie but by an imposter.

What are your requirements?

Have you investigated using Wikimedia Labs? This page has more
information: .

The Wikimedia Foundation already hosts over 800 wikis. Maybe you can
explain why you feel you need your own wiki instead of using an existing
one or setting up your own test wiki on Labs or using a service like Wikia?

[Wikimedia-l] MediaWiki project

[OhNoitsJamie 1]

Hello,

I have been long interested in starting my own MediaWiki project, but the
issue is that I cannot maintain server infrastructure myself. Also, most of
the MediaWiki hosting services listed do not meet my requirements.
Therefore, I was wondering if the WMF would consider starting a new project
that I could be founder of. I'm open to a variety of topics, please let me
know what you would prefer.

Thank you for your time,
Jamie
