 A wiki, in its most unrestrictive form, lets visitors to a site edit, add content, and create new pages for new topics. ​ The most widely used wiki of this sort is Wikipedia. ​ But wikis can also be used as content management systems, that is, as the means to organize and deliver the content of a web site to its visitors. ​ It's in this way that **mbvan.org** uses DokuWiki. ​ Many wikis stand somewhere in between the unrestricted formats such as Wikipedia and Content Management Systems. ​ [[http://​net18reaching.org|Cityscapes]],​ a project of my own, is something like this. A wiki, in its most unrestrictive form, lets visitors to a site edit, add content, and create new pages for new topics. ​ The most widely used wiki of this sort is Wikipedia. ​ But wikis can also be used as content management systems, that is, as the means to organize and deliver the content of a web site to its visitors. ​ It's in this way that **mbvan.org** uses DokuWiki. ​ Many wikis stand somewhere in between the unrestricted formats such as Wikipedia and Content Management Systems. ​ [[http://​net18reaching.org|Cityscapes]],​ a project of my own, is something like this.

Discussion topic (maximum 40 characters):

The Discussion topic will identify your topic in the Discussion index and will appear at the top of the discussion page. A filename will be created from the topic with characters other than numbers and letters converted to dashes and underscores. If the Discussion topic is greater than 25 characters, only the first 25 will be used for the file name. (Given these conversions, it's possible for two topics to translate into the same filename; if so you will be notified.)
