MediaWiki hosts

topic posted Fri, September 24, 2004 - 12:42 PM by  iFaqeer
I have fallen in love with the interface of MediaWiki. See:

wikipedia.sourceforge.net/
and
meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki

I don't have my own server yet. Would anyone know of hosts [preferably free or cheap] that run this or similar software?

    What do you mean by the "interface"?

      My "interface", I mean the way users can interact with the Wiki:

      * The layout, look and feel of pages.
      * The ease with which links can be created--I much prefer the [single square brackets] and [[double square brackets]] as well as way in which text in those bracket converts to link text in MediaWiki to the [*yadayada*] or JoinedWordsWithCaps or other Wiki software.
      * and so on.

    Dreamhost offers this wiki free with a standard account. Installation just takes a click, although customization seems to take some serious patience - its taking me forever!
