Understanding the Concept of a Wiki

A wiki is an online space that fosters collaboration among users. It allows individuals to contribute collectively by adding text, images, videos, and links. This system is designed for quick updates and is named after the Hawaiian word “wikiwiki,” which means “quick.”
