Wiki have give us a lot of advantages such as provides an easy text formatting and docs linking tools.it is also requires only basic programming skills and thus is simple to use and maintain.Wiki are mostly free and open source besides the members can create content(articles,manuals and other documents)independently to each other.Wikis also have broad fields of application.the examples of wiki software are Wikipedia,MediaWiki, TikiWiki, DokuWiki etc.
