Wikia - creating communities
Politics in general is the art of convincing others. Or maybe it's the art of compromise. Or perhaps it's the aggregate sum of personal contacts that we have on a daily basis. Whichever, it is embedded into our world-wide culture, including the Internet.
Wikia has created many different wikis for various political subjects, some of which get good attention, some of which don't. This page lists those that some Wikians found while looking over the list and doing various searches. It's based on, but is not a substitute for, the Category, but it might be fun to talk about how all these sites can link together and work together towards a common goal, that of gathering information to help us all make good decisions and let our voice be heard.
This list is for wiki hosted by wikia.com. If you would like to add links to external wiki websites, please do so under #External Wiki on Politics
