lets talk what extually wiki is? The first thing that you have to know about wiki is that wiki is a web page were every user can upload or edit their own page. It is an encyclopedia written collaboratively by many of its readers.
 * __What Is a Wiki?__**

Today's wiki is as close to the human life. Thousand of people around the world use a wiki so, in every hour a thousand of changes and information is uploaded. The web page are uploaded with some of the accurate information and some of them with a not accurate page, it depends on the user (who editted the page).

The man who created a name wiki is a called as cunningham. Orginally the name wiki was going to be called as the 'QuickWeb' but unfortunetly cunningham thought that the name 'WikiWikiWeb' was more suitable for calling it our (in 1994). Cunningham was in part inspired by Apple's HyperCard. Apple had designed a system allowing users to create virtual "card stacks" supporting links among the various cards. Cunningham developed Vannevar Bush's ideas by allowing users to "comment on and change one another's text". In the early 2000s, wikis were increasingly adopted in enterprise as collaborative software. Common uses included project communication, intranets, and documentation, initially for technical users. Today some companies use wikis as their only collaborative software and as a replacement for static intranets, and some schools and universities use wikis to enhance group learning. The wiki software package supported by the department is MediaWiki ([|www.mediawiki.org]).
 * __CREATION OF WIKI__**

 * __TRUST AND SECURITY__**

Wiki is a open web for public which means it is a publicly editable web. The securirty for wikipedia is very low that's why the user for wiki is increseasing every time. When you try to create an account for a wikipedia the recommended information are not asked that's why the people are more successful for publishing a wrong information.

Most people, when they first learn about the wiki concept, assume that a Web site that can be edited by anybody would soon be rendered useless by destructive input. It sounds like offering free spray cans next to a grey concrete wall. The only likely outcome would be ugly graffiti and simple tagging, and many artistic efforts would not be long lived. Still, it seems to work very well. To make an account for a wikipedia or to visit the site click here.

You have tried hard, but you must remain focused on the task given. Ensure that you put in the information requested, rather than what you found. Also make sure it is in your own words and include a reference of your sources of information as this is in a public domain. Requested information included: What it is, the technology supporting it, how it is being used and some of the issues.Ms Hancox
