Database: Internet: Online: Content: Management: Wiki: What is wiki? 
[history]
---
Wiki is a technology for the collaborative creation of Internet and
Intranet pages.
It was developed by Ward Cunningham (1949-) in 1995, for the
'Portland Pattern Repository'
---
'Wiki-wiki' means 'fast' in the Hawaii language.
A 'Wikii' is a web site you can help build yourself.
The idea is that a potentially very large group of people possibly
working together on Internet pages should be able to build them
'fast'er.

Database:

'wiki' database like e.g.

To facilitate the discovery and documentation of software patterns, he 
invented the world's first wiki, a web-based collaborative writing 
tool. Most recently, Cunningham is credited with being the primary 
inspiration behind many of the techniques of Extreme Programming.
