+== WRITING WIKI ARTICLES ==
+A wiki is a website that allows site visitors to write, delete, add and edit website's content with or without a previous registration. Wiki is an extremely popular tool of webmasters who want to attract more visitors to their websites and lure with an opportunity of free expression and collaborative authoring.
+The perfect example of a wiki is Wikipedia, a website that features a free encyclopedia made by internet users and writers.
+Wikis exist just on any topic be it related to colleges and universities, the business world, politics, art or society. Please refer to some examples of wikis.
+. Wikibooks.org Wiki about books and journals, very much preferred by college and university students with small budgets.
+. Wikiquote.org Wiki that features quotes and sayings of famous people, leaders and gurus of writing.
+. Wikiversity.org/ Wiki that features articles, magazines, coursework and study program for educational community.
+. Wiktionary.org/. It is a wiki-based online dictionary and an educational portal. Students can use that website for learning, studying, and essay referencing.
+Wiki, thus is nothing else but an offspring of Traditional Essays and Narrative Essays based on the internet technology. Wikis are written usually in HTML, and usually in English.
+Due to the fact that Wikis can be written by students, professors, writers, politicians, managers, internet surfers, or businessmen who do not necessarily have to disclose their true identity, Wikis cannot be used as reputable writing and referencing sources. University Professors do not allow wikis in writing college term papers or essays.
