The definition of a wiki is a page or collection of web pages designed to enable anyone who access it to contribute or modify the content. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and power many community websites.  There are many wikis out there you may not have known were wikis.

If you want to make your own wiki, check out EditMe - it's the best looking and easiest hosted wiki, IMHO.
