What Is Wiki
Wiki is in Ward's original description:
The simplest online database that could possibly work.

Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly.

Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.

Like many simple concepts, "open editing" has some profound and subtle effects on Wiki usage. Allowing everyday users to create and edit any page in a Web site is exciting in that it encourages democratic use of the Web and promotes content composition by nontechnical users.

An Automag Wiki would be pretty sweet. Debunk a lot of myths and provide some useful information to fellow 'maggers. I say go for it, and post a link here when you do.

I don't know that the topic is broad enough to warrant a wiki. Havoc took care of just about everything years ago.

Partially. It's not the same static resource that a wiki would be, and I think we could get a lot more concrete info down in a wiki.

Also, Havoc-Online hasn't come close to a full writeup of everything available for the 'mag. Wikis are almost by definiton too much info for one person to write.
