Content

A **wiki** (  [|/] [|ˈ][|w][|ɪ][|k][|i] [|/] [|//**wik**-ee//] ) is a [|website] that allows the creation and editing of any number of [|interlinked] [|web pages] via a [|web browser] using a simplified [|markup language] or a [|WYSIWYG] text editor.[|[][|1][|]][|[][|2][|]][|[][|3][|]] Wikis are typically powered by [|wiki software] and are often [|used collaboratively] by multiple users. Examples include community websites, corporate [|intranets], [|knowledge management] systems, and note services. The software can also be used for personal [|notetaking]. Wikis serve different purposes. Some permit control over different functions (levels of access). For example editing rights may permit changing, adding or removing material. Others may permit access without enforcing access control. Other rules can be imposed for organizing content. [|Ward Cunningham], the developer of the first wiki software, [|WikiWikiWeb], originally described it as "the simplest online database that could possibly work."[|[][|4][|]] "Wiki" (pronounced [|[ˈwiti]] or [|[ˈviti]] ) is a [|Hawaiian] word for "fast".[|[][|5] from Wikipedia
