The West City founder's page is dedicated to those people in the West City area that initially made the West City WikiXM news a reality. Without their initiative, foresight and social fortitude the West City WikiXM news would not have happened. Like all those that have come before us, these founder saw what others couldn't - potential in a new way of doing an old medium - a new way of providing the news to the people around them. We want to thank these people by featuring them on the West City founders page for life. There are many venues to get the news but WikiXM was initiated by your founders, for the people of West City, to create the news they saw fit.
WikiXM - West City, IL is the people's news source; for the people, by the people.
