| − | == | + | ==Basic Wiki Concepts== |
| − | + | A [[Wiki]] is a website where any visitor can edit pages. The first Wiki was [[Ward Cunningham]]'s website [[WikiWikiWeb]]. Wikis were first brought to public attention by the collaborative on-line encyclopedia [[Wikipedia]]. | |
| − | == | + | ==WikiModes and Editing== |
| + | [[WikiModes]] were first defined on the [[WikiWikiWeb]] as "modes of interaction and annotation" on the wiki. The principal modes are [[DocumentMode]], which is when a Wiki contribution is written in the third person and left unsigned, and [[ThreadMode]], which is a form of discussion where the wiki community holds a conversation. | ||
| + | |||
| + | [[Ward Cunningham]] advocated the use of [[DocumentMode]] rather [[ThreadMode]], in other words [[DissertationFavoredOverDialog]]. Each page was to begin with an [[OpeningStatement]], and visitors were encouraged to edit pages in the role of an anonymous [[WikiAuthor]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | One form of editing is [[ReFactoring]], which is a programming term which has come to mean rearranging a wiki page to improve it's structure. | ||

| + | |||
| + | An [[EditHint]] is a marker set to point out places where edits would be of benefit, such as to clarify the original intent or to apply a second opinion. | ||
| + | |||
| + | EditHint is the general tag, and there are numerous specialized refactoring tags, such as [[RefactorMe]], AnswerMe, [[DeleteMe]], [[DeleteWhenCooked]], DeleteThisPageSoon, TooLargeToGrasp, [[BrokenLink]], [[BrokenWhitespace]] and [[ToDo]]. | ||
