== Wikipedia on MeatballWiki ==

Wikipedia states that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meatball_Wiki MeatballWiki] is a wiki dedicated to online communities, culture and hypermedia, which was the launching point for various wiki-based projects, and has become a central resource for the wider wiki community. The Wikipedia article also states that:

* MeatballWiki hosted a project journal concerning design of UseModWiki, a wiki program developed by Clifford Adams and used by MeatballWiki.
* MeatballWiki promoted the key concept of "barn raising": Sunir Shah created the first internet barnstar award there.
* MeatballWiki is a sister company of WikiWikiWeb, the first Wiki to be created.

Additional information can be found on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:MeatballWiki MeatballWiki Talk] page. The article was proposed for deletion but the decision was made to keep it. See the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/MeatballWiki Deletion Discussion Archive]. The reasons for deletion seem to have been that the article cited no sources and concerned a site with insufficient notoriety. The main arguments for keeping it were that it was one of the oldest wikis, that its members were involved in developing what eventually became the Wikipedia software, and that the site remains a mine of useful information.
