So I am in the process of creating a Wiki and want it to remain unseeable until it is really ready to be seen, so is there some way I can ensure that no random person come rampaging through by chance? Is any way to for instance simply lock the Wiki entirely from outside people until it's ready?

Thanks in advance!

Wikia does not support private wikis - you can't prevent others from viewing your wiki. However, if you don't mention it to anyone, no one is likely to find it until you want it to be seen anyway. Monchoman45 Talk Contribs Skystone 03:56,8/9/2012
