[[Wikipedia]], with over a million articles, is the most well-known wiki website and is a testimony to the effectiveness of wikis in allowing exhange of information through collaborative effort. However, it also leads to politically correct manipulation of articles on or dealing with Christianity that could oftentimes lead to censoring of pertinent information on the subject.

However, it also leads to politically correct manipulation of articles on or dealing with Christianity that could oftentimes lead to censoring of pertinent information on the subject.

In recent years, in response to some of these criticism, small numbers of Christian wiki websites have been setup. The first religious wiki was [http://clublet.com/c/c/why? Why Clubbet] although this has been called a failure by some. Currently the largest Christian wiki is [http://www.wikichristian.org WikiChristian] which aims to be a major reference site for all topics relating to Christianity.  Due to massive vandalism in May 2009<ref>http://www.wikichristian.org/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=667215</ref> the pages were locked and the wiki is currently inactive regarding editing. [http://www.orthodoxwiki.org OrthodoxWiki], for the Eastern Orthodox church and [http://www.theopedia.com Theopedia], for evangelical Bible-based Christians are two denomination-specific Christian wikis. CARMPedia at [http://www.carmpedia.com www.carmpedia.com] was a relative new-comer, but no longer exists.  [http://jesuspedia.wikispaces.com/Jesuspedia+Home Jesuspedia] is a small but growing Christian wiki encyclopedia, built upon the Bible, that affirms its unity with all of God's children.
