In mid 2008 a major overhaul of the organization of the site began when Robert Murphy helped arrange a number of measures including uploading the entire Bible in a number of languages and translations, verse by verse. We are incredibly grateful to him for all his work. Through the years 2009 to 2015 WikiChristian was hit by an incredible amount of vandalism and spam which almost shut WikiChristian down. To save the site editing was closed down and the site lay essential dormant through these long years. In 2015 its founders and senior editors Prab and Graham attempted to bring WikiChristian back into activity. Please put WikiChristian in your prayers as it aims to be an incredibly useful source of information for Christian disciples everywhere. ===Questions and Answers=== ;What Commercial Interest Do you have?:We have absolutely no commercial interest what so ever. ;What is your mission?:Our mission is to provide a [[Christian]] encyclopedia and be a wiki based forum for all Christian writings, serve as a repository for all Christian Classic works expanding the usefulness of the content by wiki internlinking the key words, provide a contemporary free Bible Dictionary created by users and last but not least build an open source Wiki Amplified Translation of the Bible.  ==Links==* [http://siteanalytics.compete.com/wikichristian.org/?metric=uv# SnapShot of WikiChristian at Compete]* [http://www.quantcast.com/profile/traffic-compare?domain0=wikichristian.org&domain1=&domain2=&domain3=&domain4= Traffic to WikiChristian at Quantcast.com] {{returnto}} [[Christianity]] -> [[Christian literature, art, music and media]] -> [[Christianity and the Internet]] -> [[Christian wikis]] [[Category:Christian wikis]][[Category:Internet]][[Category:WikiChristian]]
