Intel Corporation (Wikipedia article): "I implemented an instance of MediaWiki for use by all 100,000+ employees of the company. It's called Intelpedia, and was created in November 2005. In the first year of life, it quickly grew to over 10,000 pages, and almost 3,000 registered contributors. It averages about 8,000 views and 150 edits per day. Intelpedia was featured at Wikimania 2006, as part of the organizational use of MediaWiki, and was also featured in a Wall Street Journal article on the same topic."

Wikia (Wikipedia article): "MediaWiki software is the foundation of everything Wikia does today. It has proved to be extremely scalable and flexible as Wikia has grown to over 230,000 articles and millions of page views. MediaWiki is a very rich and powerful software tool that is enabling Wikia to build a sustainable business."
— Gil Penchina, Chief Executive Officer

Company profile: Since the site's launch in November 2004, over 1,500 Wikia have been created and edited by over 30,000 registered users. Wikia are already available in over 40 languages (List of Wikia). Wikia already hosts some of the world's largest wikis outside of Wikipedia. Wikia is committed to openness and improving the world, by inviting anyone to contribute web content. Authors retain their own copyrights and allow others to freely reuse their content under the GNU Free Documentation License, allowing widespread distribution of knowledge and ideas.

End Point Corporation: "We use MediaWiki for our private intranet to keep track of much of our business. We have added some customizations (HTTP basic auth logins, a 'watch everything' option) and have installed MediaWiki for several of our clients as well. Our experience has been good. What attracted us to MediaWiki is that its markup format is now widely known due to the popularity of Wikipedia, and we wanted to make it easy for users to edit pages. Installation was fairly straightforward, although some configuration that doesn't match Wikipedia's needs (such as a closed login-only site) wasn't simple, and patches that the developers think won't ever be used by Wikipedia have not been accepted. But running MediaWiki has been a breeze. [Our clients] found having a Wiki to be very valuable. It frees them from the mess of emailing word processing documents back and forth, with conflicting versions, no clear edit history, and no interlinking. Keeping everything on the server, accessible via a web browser, has been very helpful."
— Jon Jensen, Vice President, Systems and Development

Company profile: End Point develops database-backed websites, especially e-commerce, for our clients in many areas. Our technologies of choice are free software such as Interchange, Perl, PostgreSQL, Linux, and Apache.

Gyanasoft: "When Gyanasoft was founded, MediaWiki was one of the very first IT systems we set up, due to our experience using it at previous companies. It's working out very well as a central repository for all of our knowledge; we use it to store e.g. system administration documents, software installation guides, HR procedures, an internal address book, software tips and tricks, weekly status reports, and all customer project related information. "
— Stephen Warren, Software Architect

Company profile: Gyanasoft is focused on providing robust embedded software platform architectures, tools and services, targeted at the System-on-a-Chip market, with particular expertise in Consumer electronics equipment and programmable multi-media processors.

Aperture Technologies, Inc.: "Aperture is one of the first companies to implement a corporate wiki on its intranet using MediaWiki software.

We are considering opening it up to our customers."
