A wiki is a website that allows the creation and editing of any number of interlinked web pages, generally used to store information on a specific subject or subjects. This is done with a day-to-day web browser using a simplified markup language (HTML as an example) or a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) text editor.
