| wiki | A type of website that allows anyone visiting the site to add, remove, or otherwise edit all content, very quickly and easily, often without the need for registration. This ease of interaction and operation makes a wiki an effective tool for collaborative writing. The term can also refer to the collaborative software itself (wiki engine) that facilitates the operation of such a website. In essence, a wiki is a simplification of the process of creating HTML pages combined with a system that records each individual change that occurs over time, so that at any time, a page can be reverted to any of its previous states. |
