A wiki is '''an hypertext system where making links is very simple and fast for collective editing'''. All genuine wikis, such as this [[development wiki]] (which is one of many [[mediawiki-based service]]s) have persistent history so that all [http://www.consumerium.org/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=Wiki&action=history old versions are available for retrospection].  Thus it is possible to tell for instance that this page has been [[revert]]ed many times to remove [[spam]].
[[Wiki linking]] and how it works in [[mediawiki]] is one of many topics discussed in this development wiki.  This will be mostly of benefit to [[new troll]]s.  See [[wiki best practice]]s for other information of importance to newbies.
== wiki mindset ==
For more sophisticated views of what goes on politically and organizationally in wikis and related [[mindset]] see:
*[[wiki etiquette]]:  [[be bold]]
*[[wiki management]]:  steering clear of the politics - outlining wiki management problems, both here and in general
**[[neutral point of view]]:  balance of existing users' views - [[systemic bias]]
**[[New Troll point of view]]:  accomodating challenge from new users who strongly challenge the bias
**[[learning organization]]:  letting New Troll refine neutral
*[[wiki politics]]
**[[wiki witchhunt]]:  who wrote this?  who cares!
**[[sysop power structure]]: is it really ever necessary?
== proposals to reduce political problems ==
*[[Wiki Governance Practices]] - tries to outline good practices for managing wikis
::[[revert currency]] - a currency to make wiki management more predictable
::[[WikiVote]] - a type of vote cast for a [[campaign]] in [[Opinion Wiki]]. Also other types of votes have been proposed see [[Voting]] or [[Votes]] on this
=== wiki content ===
*[[naming convention]]
*[[wikitext standard]] - easily the most important problem in wiki integration

=== relevance to Consumerium ===
Many [[Wiki management]] questions arise regarding future consumerium use of wiki.  ''See '''[[Wikis]]''' for discussion on several proposed wikis that [[filter]] [[information flow]]s to enable [[Consumerium Services]] or [[Features]].''  These accept input, processing, and provide output that becomes the [[Consumerium buying signal]]:  a [[Research Wiki]] and [[Publish Wiki]] to complement this development effort are presently proposed:
*[[Development Wiki]] extensions to better incorporate all kinds of feedback
*[[Opinion Wiki]]/[[Research Wiki]] - two names for the same thing, though some concepts are defined with a rather specific idea of one or the other
*[[Content Wiki]]/[[Signal Wiki]]/[[Publish Wiki]] - which generate the [[Consumerium buying signal]] directly
''See '''[[Wikis]]''' for more on these wikis that enable [[Consumerium Services]] or [[Features]].''
