Blog about Wikis...

Memory Alpha

This wiki is one of my all-time favorite wikis to kill time with. It has information anyone could possibly ever want to know about Star Trek, from plot lines to technobabble to characters. The wiki is written with an "in universe" feel, meaning that the perspective of articles aside from news items is as if they were rooted in a reality where Star Trek is real. This wiki covers all Star Trek series and movies. The wiki is run and hosted by fans, independent of holders of the intellectual property.


Another wiki about another sci-fi universe/TV show. This wiki has numerous articles on the critically acclaimed television series Battlestar Galactica in its latest incarnation. However, it also serves as a wiki repository for the older iterations of Battlestar Galactica as well. This wiki also appears to be run by and hosted by fans.


This is a wiki for my latest television passion, Glee. This wiki is relatively new, and is not as robust as the other two wikis due to the age of the show and the age of the wiki. Although contributions appear to be largely from fans, the wiki is hosted by Fox, the network that airs Glee. It's unclear whether this wiki and other wikis hosted by TV network websites are subject to manipulation by editors affiliated with the show or the network.
