== What is '''Wiki'''? ==

: A ''[[wiki]]'' is a '''Collection''' of interlinked web pages and '''photos''', all of which can be visited and edited by anyone at any time ([[collaborative software]]). [[Ward Cunningham]] invented the concept and software. You could even edit this page by clicking the '''"edit"''' link on the third tab above, or edit only a section by clicking on "[edit]" to its right! If you don't have anything to add or correct on this page and you just want to see how it works, try out the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox]]. See also: [[Wikipedia:Editing FAQ]]. So, how do we keep this discussion from being hijacked or totally destroyed by pranksters, or even worse, by devils who know that the best way to lie is to change just a tiny bit that no one notices?
