Forum:Bad Wikia?

So I am looking for a place to host a wiki about my prefecture in Japan, for non-Japanese residents or tourists. For example, places to eat, where to buy things, what attractions to see, etc, for each city in my prefecture.

Of course, that is not general enough to draw a large community, so I first looked at joining it with an existing Japan wiki.

Well, there *IS* a Japan wiki, hooray! But...has anyone looked at it recently?

First of all, it is not even remotely related to its purported topic (eg, general information about Japan), even the logo makes this abundantly clear.

Second, there's only one page with content, the main page. Can someone who understands more Japanese look at that and tell me what it says? Something about scary date spots? What the heck? How did this get approved?

So, what do I do now? I can't start a general Japan wiki, because there already "is" one (except, it isn't), and my actual topic is too small for it's own wikia.

Suggestions?
 * Try starting on Scratchpad. Then Wikia staffers can look into wiki growing and make decision of promoting mini-wiki to full Wikia, or changing the profile of existing, if there's no content. You can also always stay on Scratchpad, if you will like it or there will be no good reason to moving outside Scratchpad. Szoferka 12:24, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
