The project started 14th of April 2005, even before the name ''Hitchwiki'' existed. However, the person who started didn't respond when the wiki was constantly being spammed. Consequently, on December 17th [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] moved the wiki to Wikicities (now [http://www.wikia.com/ Wikia]), a migration that was completed on the 19th of December 2005.
[[User:Guaka|Guaka]] organized the relaunch with a first English version of the wiki. A second and final relaunch was done at ''hitchwiki.org'' (registered on November 22nd 2006) by [[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] and Guaka - thanks to Wikia's availability of the database dump. In 2007 Spanish, French and German versions were added, in 2008 Russian and Finnish versions and 2009 brought a Bulgarian language version. More and more versions have been added since (see [http://hitchwiki.org/ the front page] for an overview). [[User:Mikael|Mikael]] joined Hitchwiki in 2008 after he had done Finnish version and migrated it to Hitchwiki.org. Mikael wrote new maps system in 2010 and is responsible for the layout, among other things.
Currently the core team doing the technical tasks is [[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]], [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] and [[User:Mikael|Mikael]].
