: Originally this wiki was started at hitchhikingguide.org as ''Hitchhiker's Guide to Hitchhiking'', by Teppo Moisio (who is also the originator of one of the founders of [[websites|Liftari.org]]). Because it was spammed all the time there, with no maintainer in sight, it was relaunched on Wikia as ''Hitchhiking Wiki'' on hitchhiking.wikia.com. Now it has its own domain, '''[http://hitchwiki.org hitchwiki.org]''' and its current name, '''[[Hitchwiki]]'''. The wiki moved from hitchhiking.wikia.org to hitchwiki.org in November 2006. We transferred all the pages (including user pages and images) to here, but unfortunately, Wikia didn't let us export user-accounts, so you will have to register here again. Also, unfortunately Wikia made the old URL redirects to world.wikia.com, and we can't do anything about that. This seems to confuse a lot of people. Anyway, now we have our own domain and own databases, so the wiki will stay here forever!
