[shrug] I still maintain it really doesn't matter. You are finding all these near-same wikis because for some reason you are looking for them, and using the wiki search. Casual users find their wikis via google and other search engines, and thus will only find the top dawgs.

I know of one large and prominent wiki covering a topic quite extensively. Then their topic's IP was purchased by an Owner of Several Franchises. Now there are several wikis covering the New Owner's varied material. Many individual wikis for individual movie and shows, one covering their cable channels, and the largest covering all of them.

So now the First Wiki's Topic now comes under the umbrella of their New Owner's largest wiki on Wikia, and their reaction? To dare to dictate to the "new owner topic" wiki what they can and cannot cover on their wiki.

Personally I find that unacceptable. Just as I do not agree that any one wiki community and its members should be concerned with what their "cousin wikis" are or are not doing, successful or failure.

Concentrate upon your primary wiki. Merge with what you can. Affiliate with others. Ignore the rest.
