I was always under the impression that Wikia *approves* sites.
You can't just have them host anything you want, they have to agree to it.
Is that not the case?
Also would you know what they charge?

There is always Wikia. They're a few versions behind, but host a TON of wikis
already. You can even have them enable various extensions (like Semantic
Bundle).

This would be interesting for my little farm, I have the time to put into
it but not the needed "know how" to fix issues, install some extensions
etc, but as Wjhonson states it would have to be adorable to those users.

VisualEditor would make MediaWiki a decent competitor from the
perspective of the corporate types I've seen involved in such
purchasing decisions. I'm not sure how much traction it'd have but
there is something to say for MediaWiki being the wiki that everyone
is used to.
