When I was younger, I signed up for Wikipedia. I made this decision because I follow local politics and noticed that all the mayors and city council members of the LA suburbs didn't have their own articles, so I created a bunch of them. At first, it went okay, but then I noticed more and more of my articles getting deleted over time. As a response, I tried recreating the deleted articles in order to improve them, yet they kept getting deleted. This past September, I received a warning "not to create articles inappropriate for Wikipedia", so I stopped. A week or so later, I came across another, newer, wiki that served my purpose more:
EverybodyWiki.
EverybodyWiki is what you'd think it is just by looking at the name: A wiki for everyone. EverybodyWiki is exactly like Wikipedia, but without the strict notability guidelines. I created numerous articles on EverybodyWiki in the last month, including my own article. I am a strong believer in "giving people their due", and EverybodyWiki allows me to do just that. The only thing that may be a downside is that you need to sign up to create AND edit articles, not just create like Wikipedia.
The verdict: Highly recommended.
