By now, you may have noticed that anytime you Google a topic, word, name, or any subject, you will have a Wikipedia link pop up in your list of choices. Pretty much all there is to know about any subject will usually pop up in Wikipedia. If you ever want to know about the origin of baseball or the Actors in the movie "Avatar", look it up in Wikipedia. It is the knowledgeable and the die hard fans of movies, sports, science, math, history etc. who come together to put all this information together for those of us who endeavor to find out more. Wikis have become the premier go to guide for finding all your fan information needs. You ever want to know your favorite artist real name or birth date? Go to a wiki!
There are wikis completely dedicated to your favorite entertainment or educational loves. For instance, look at the Movie "Avatar", which is now one of the biggest movies of all time. Before the movie was released there was a bit of confusion by the name "Avatar" (James Cameron) and "Avatar: The Last Airbender". "Avatar" was a huge franchise and action animated series that is being made into a motion picture. At any rate the movies generally have the same overall name, but are completely different. For fans who want to know about these movies they could visit Avatar (Last Airbender) wiki or Avatar (James Cameron) wiki. Wikis help fans distinguish between 2 similar ideas that may seemingly be the same. These wikis are comprised of information gained overtime from die hard fans and even professionals. Fan wikis keep fans in the know and up to date on their favorite artist, movies, and tv shows. They also contain links to other wikis that provide information on a connected subject, person, and even themes. Wikis are very reliable when it comes to entertainment. That goes to show you that wikis aren’t just for educational use. They provide great insight to hobbies you may have and are great for "do it your self" exercises. It just depends on your focus and what you are looking for. It is safe to say that there is a wiki for every fan, if not, you can just create one.

Maybe I should check out the James Cameron Avatar wiki as I was one of those who thought it was based on the animated Air Bender series - LOL. I happen to like the Last Airbender (I am anxious to see the movie when it comes out). I have to admit that I was not in a rush to see a movie where there are blue people and weird concepts, but that is a little closed-minded of me. I would like to take a look to see what the movie is all about. Thank you for your post. It was very informative.
