  > A wiki (sometimes spelled "Wiki") is a server program that allows
  > users to collaborate in forming the content of a Web site. With a
  > wiki, any user can edit the site content, including other users'
  > contributions, using a regular Web browser. Basically, a wiki Web
  > site operates on a principle of collaborative trust. The term comes
  > from the word "wikiwiki," which means "fast" in the Hawaiian
  > language.

  > A wiki allows a visitor to the "wikified" Web site to edit the
  > content of the site from their own computer. Visitors can also create
  > new content and change the organization of existing content. The
  > simplest wiki programs allow editing of text and hyperlinks only.
  > More advanced wikis make it possible to add or change images, tables,
  > and certain interactive components such as games.
  >
  > A wiki provides a simplified interface. At any time, contributors can
  > conveniently view the Web page as it looks to other subscribers,
  > before and after the changes they have made. It is not necessary to
  > know HTML (hypertext markup language) or perform work in HTML code.
  > The best known example of a wiki Web site is Wikipedia, an online
  > dictionary building collaboration.
