What is a Wiki?

edit
  • A wiki invites all users to edit any page or to create new pages within the wiki Web site, using only a plain-vanilla Web browser without any extra add-ons.
  • Wiki promotes meaningful topic associations between different pages by making page link creation almost intuitively easy and showing whether an intended target page exists or not.
  • A defining characteristic of wiki technology is the ease with which pages can be created and updated.

Open Issues

edit
  • How is a wiki different than a 'Space'? Are these differences enough to warrant a distinct 'wiki' feature?
  • What can't WebCenter customers and users do today that this feature would solve?
