Wikidelphia™ is primarily a crowd-sourced, categorized index to websites. It aims to answer the question, "What are the people of the Philadelphia region doing to help themselves, their neighbors and their communities?" It covers the entire city and has nearly reached the goal of having at least one entry from every single neighborhood.
See what we have in your neighborhood!
Wikidelphia currently has 2,520 pages organized with over 3,400 overlapping categories. If you'd like to get a sense of the variety of topics here, click on the "Random page" link in the sidebar menu.
