most other such systems, including blog
software, in that the content is created
without any defined owner or leader, and
wikis have little inherent structure,

the needs of the users

7. CONSISTENCY
Wikis have favoured plain-text editing, with
fewer and simpler conventions than HTML,
for indicating style and structure. Although
limiting access to HTML and Cascading
Style Sheets (CSS) of wikis limits user
ability to alter the structure and formatting
of wiki content, there are some benefits.
Limited access to CSS promotes
consistency in the look and feel, and having
JavaScript disabled prevents a user from
implementing code that may limit other
users' access.
