. Wiki pages are generally organized hierarchically, similar to a file system. The basic organizational units are Spaces, which can be defined in a variety of ways, but most important is pages within a space will share a particular set of interface elements. A wiki's success depends on people's willingness to share their knowledge, and that people know a little bit, but few know everything about a given subject. If we pool the knowledge, we make it available for everyone. Wikis can be used very dynamically, for instance to display an ongoing list of things to do by a group of people, each of whom edits the list as they complete their tasks. They can also be fairly static, like displaying an organizations's policies.
