In their own words
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. Users may browse anonymously, while the privacy policy says names and email addresses may be collected when voluntarily provided. The site may use cookies, including cookies from advertising partners such as Google AdSense for targeted advertising. The policy says personal information is not sold, traded, or rented, and may be shared with service providers for limited purposes with permission. It was last updated on 18 February 2021.
LegendKeeper
LegendKeeper is a web-based collaborative workspace for worldbuilding and RPG campaign management. Its wiki supports nested pages, rich-text editing, auto-linking, templates, tags, and shortcuts. Maps can be nested and linked to wiki articles, with uploads up to 14K pixels and 100 MB. Timelines offer chronicle, Gantt chart, and calendar views, plus custom calendar systems and linked timelines. Collaborative whiteboards support sketches, flow charts, DM screens, and pointcrawls connected to project pages. Projects are private by default and allow real-time collaboration, public sharing, granular permissions, and secrets. Users can import Markdown, Obsidian, WorldAnvil, Google Docs, and other formats, then export projects. The browser app stores wiki and atlas edits locally for later syncing, but unsynced offline changes can be lost if browser data is cleared. LegendKeeper is not a virtual tabletop and is intended to be used alongside tools such as Foundry or Roll20. It is described as being in open beta, with some core features still planned. Basic is free; Pro costs $7.50 per month billed annually.
