There is a difference between hosting a site and running a site. Jimmy's company wikia hosts a number of sites including Liberapedia - http://liberapedia.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page None of the various conservative sites seem to use wikia, unless that is Wikia allows sites to use their own domain name? Wikkii is definitely a rival to Wikia. They all seem to use wiki technology. I wonder if they are deliberately avoiding the indirect connection to Wikipedia by doing business with our founder?
Interestingly only Liberapedia and one of the conservative sites, http://www.astorehouseofknowledge.info/Main_Page are actually open for editing. Conservapedia http://www.conservapedia.com/Main_Page currently comes up as a 404 and http://conservapedia.wikkii.com/wiki/Main_Page allows you to create an account, but not to edit, not even to edit your own talkpage.... Has anyone done a study of these various sites to see if any have had a measure of success without allowing IP editing? As EN Wiki looks like rising the drawbridge to the extent of only allowing autoconfimred accounts to create new articles, it would be interesting to know if any successful sites are that restrictive.
