It's [[Rules of the Internet|Rule 78]]: There is a Wiki of it. No exceptions.
There is no area of interest, no matter how narrowly defined, where a person cannot put up a wiki for it and attract at least a few editors with similar interests. Increasingly, in fact, there is a chance that someone already ''has'' put up a wiki for it. For example, here's one for [http://cactus.wikia.com/ cacti]. The plants.▼

In the early days of the Internet, there was a similar phenomenon, the "everything has its own home page" rule. Anyone with enough HTML savvy and a powerful enough interest in one particular subject could and often would create a site dedicated to it. This was largely how the early Web was forged, in fact. All the stuff we know and love today—e-commerce, social networking—that came later. Except [[Rule 34|porn]].

With the advent of [[Wikipedia]], the playing field changed. Rather than rely on a collection of sites each written by one person with questionable expertise, users could find most of the information they needed in an article written, edited, and fact-checked by an ''entire userbase'' of people with questionable expertise, but all on one easy-to-remember site. The interest in hand-crafted "fan sites" waned.

Not all Wikis are on the major search engines, though. Corporations use wikis behind firewalls, the American CIA uses one to collate data among agents and analysts, and even publishers of dead-tree books use them to coordinate edits among authors, editors and copy editors.
Fan-made wikis are usually made on wiki farms, such as Miraheze or [[Wikia]], or else are hosted on a preexisting fansite. Recently,{{when}} organisations such as [http://www.niwanetwork.org/ NIWA] have spoken out against the commercialization that takes place on wiki farms, and have encouraged fans to set up their own websites.
Wikis can reach truly huge sizes. To put them up as candidate for a [[Doorstopper]] is an understatement. [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_wikis See the list of largest wikis]. Note: If you're looking for [[TV Tropes]], they're on the list at the bottom.
