Wiki's about place are fun for a community to use and deepen the community. These are generally *very local* - case in point - at the DavisWiki - there was created a guide to locations in the city where there used to be a telephone booth. Fun local history!
You live someplace. A civic wiki is a wiki about that place.
There is a pretty big overlap between this and a similar project at WikiIndex Cities Category
Except that the bulk of the listings in WikiIndex are Wikia, etc. projects. By restricting this listing to civic wikis that have their own domains, I hope to exclude most of those.
