In their own words
Huijiwiki
Huijiwiki is a hosted wiki farm where users can apply to create topic-focused wikis. It is built on MediaWiki and combines Semantic MediaWiki with a Bootstrap-based interface; its server side uses Huijiwiki’s DragonPit architecture. The platform supports semantic solutions and MongoDB-based structured data, while wiki operators can add their own styles and scripts. Content and functions support responsive reading and editing on mobile devices. Huijiwiki can migrate data from Wikia, Gamepedia and other MediaWiki-based sites. It supports the MediaWiki API and adds interfaces of its own. On sites using its WeChat public platform integration, users can send a term and receive lookup results. The maker lists security measures including SSL, encrypted storage of privacy information and data-center access controls. Registration and applications to create a hosted wiki are free, but approval is not guaranteed. The service does not offer private deployment or access-permission features, and the maker advises against using it for personal notes.
Indie Wikis
Indie Wikis hosts and manages wikis for qualifying indie games and mods. The web service covers hosting, spam protection, templates, and content moderation, with no hosting fees for approved wiki owners. A project should have an established community and enough complexity to justify a wiki, and Indie Wikis decides whether it qualifies. Wiki owners receive 60% of advertising revenue, with the share negotiable and payments made monthly. The service has a free plan and no free trial. Prospective owners are asked to contact Indie Wikis about eligibility.
