Concepts

Interwiki

The idea of all wikis being connected in a low-tech federation. An interwiki link connects one wiki to another, treating them as parts of a whole.

Software

Hosting

Most web hosts will have an automated way to install a bunch of different wiki software. There are also places called wiki farms that specialise in maintaining wikis. They take care of installation and updates and tend to have useful extensions installed; leaving you in charge of you in charge of personalisation, content, and moderation.

Useful Scripts and things

Pandoc

I tend to write my notes in Markdown (may just switch to Org at some point?), so being able to easily convert from that syntax to something I can plonk into a wiki is very useful! You can even grab HTML files and stuff straight from the WWW.

☞ I don't like Markdown enough to actually use it as the markup language for the wiki, though.

MD to Doku

pandoc [inputfile.md] -f markdown -t dokuwiki -o [outputfile]

Fandom / Wikia

Fandom/Wikia wiki's are a pain to navigate, and I can barely open them on my phone there're so many ads. and shit.
