Sister cities
Greetings Wikicitizens.

At PeaceWiki, we have started a page called Sister Cities that links to other Wikicities that we feel might be of interest to our own citizens. Please give us a visit and consider doing something similar in your own city. I realize there is a list of all Wikicities here on the main site but not all of those will be of interest to everyone. So in the spirit of expanding our separate cities into a larger Metropolis, you may wish to consider linking to some others which have common/similar interests. Please consider incuding us. ;-) Simply lift the code, create your own Sister City page and post a link. We'll all come visit. thanks.

WikiMac
Fellow Wikicitizens,

WikiMac is developing well, and we'd like to take this chance to invite more people in to help us out on a new Macintosh information community. In response to the proposal by PeaceWiki, we have started linking to other wikis with computing-related content, especially to the Mozilla and Podcasting wikis, as they deal in two topics which are of interest to Mac users.

We, too, will be linking to other wikis as we feel needed. In the meantime, a tiny progress update from WikiMac: Our category pages are getting a face-lift (and main pages which form the title for the category are getting a link to the category too), and we're implementing new templates. What this really means is that for the visitor to WikiMac, things will get a lot easier -- you will be able to browse with much more ease.

Multilinguality is one very important point at WikiMac. As the wiki on Wikicities in the most languages (6: DE, EN, ES, FR, IT and ZH), we have already started on translating many articles. Right now, System Preferences is available in German, French, English and Chinese. Only the main pages and the page on the Macintosh are available in all six languages.

In the meantime we thank the whole community for their support and invite you to visit WikiMac at your earliest convenience.

Thanks, --DavidFeng 17:54, 19 Feb 2005 (GMT)

Wikicities tops the Alexa stats
The latest Alexa Statistics show Wikicities has a higher page ranking than many other sites which provide wiki hosting. The recent indexing by Google is probably responsible for our increased ranking.

Tablature Wiki
Could anyone give me some feedback as to the structure of my new tablature wikicities site- http://tablature.wikicities.com. I've only put two albums on so far but you can get the jist of it. Would there be any easier way of arranging it? For example, would it be possible to use a different namespace for each instrument? i.e. Guitar:Song1 and Bass:Song1 would be the same song.
