2. A wiki is a website where users can add, remove, and edit every page using a web browser.
3. Ward Cunningham, the developer of the first wiki software, WikiWikiWeb, originally described it as "the simplest online database that could possibly work. Wikis are typically powered by wiki software and are often used to create collaborative websites, to power community websites, for personal note taking, in corporate intranets, and in knowledge management systems. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki

5. Using a wiki for research. Wikis can be a valuable tool for research. My favorite one is Wikipedia. Alls you have to do is find the search box type in the subject your researching and choose the best results for you.
6. The article page. After you pick the results of your choice you will have to review the article page. The article page has the information you are researching.
