WARD CUNNINGHAM AND BO LUEF DESCRIBES
THE WIKI AS
• Wiki invites all users to edit any page or to create new page using
only a plain vanilla web browser
• Promotes meaningful topic associations between different pages
by making page link creation
• Not a carefully crafted site for casual visitors
• A single page in a wiki website is referred to as “wiki page”
• A defining characteristic of wiki technology is the ease with which
pages can be created and updated
SOCIAL DARWINISM AND VANDALISM
• Open wikis can be evolved to a higher quality by editing and
removing unfit expressions and ideas. This process is called social
Darwinism.
• Vandalism is the process by which the quality suffers by posting
untrue information on the open pages.
WIKIPEDIA
• The most popular wiki
• It is a multilingual free online encyclopedia
• Launched by Jimmy Wales & Larry Sanger
• It is maintained by a community of volunteers through open collaboration
and a wiki based editing system
• Its editors are known as Wikipedians
• Wikipedia is the largest and most read reference work in history
• It was ranked the 7th most popular site
• It is hosted by the Wikimedia foundation, an American non profit organization
