Technical information about Wikicities
All Wikicities are hosted on dedicated Linux servers using squid cache acceleration for high performance.

The Wikia network is made up of four servers which run Wikicities and Memory Alpha. There is one Apache server (tampa), one MySQL server (brussels), and one squid cache (seattle). The fourth server (Ross) hosts all of our mailing lists and maintains a replica of the master database.

Hosting includes downloadable site backups, server administration, mailing lists, and site statistics. There is no limit to the size your Wikicity can be!

Wikicities operate on a shared-login system. This means you only need to create a username once, and you can edit any Wikicity. Note however that in all other regards, the software treats all projects as separate.

Largely advantages of separate projects
No pagename conflicts.

Differences that can be advantages or disadvantages
Separate per project are:
 * recent changes
 * status such as sysop
 * watchlist

Largely disadvantages of separate projects

 * Not possible across projects:
 * existence detection of a linked page
 * related changes
 * what links here
 * use of categories
 * message alert
 * user contributions are separate
 * searching ditto

With the new e-mail notification feature, the disadvantages of having separate watchlists, and not getting a "You have new messages" alert when viewing pages on another project, are more or less solved.

In general templates do not work across projects, but those on the central Wikicities work in the separate Wikicities projects, provided that the prefix "wikicities:" is used, see Help:Shared templates.
