A Wiki is a website that allows users to collaborate by adding or editing the content on a webpage. Allowing a website to be editable to all users can be extremely helpful in many different ways. A Wiki website can be helpful brainstorming ideas between any group, organizing any event, or collaborating information of any kind. Wikipedia is the most common “Wiki” website today. Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia that is editable to all users.
Wikis can be a great source for learning however, allowing the public to make additions to a webpage can have disadvantages. Some Wikis only allow authorized authors to add or edit content on a site. I believe these types of wikis to be more reliable than those that are editable to the public. This can ensure that the authorized users are credible sources that can be trusted. I am looking forward to being able to use Wiki sites and documents to help aid in communication and collaboration for many different events and webpages.
