Wiki Engines
WikiMatrix allows you to compare the features of many, many different wiki
engines. But a wiki is more than it's list of features. This documentation wiki is the right
place to document the engines in a more detailed way.

The WikiMatrix Docs
Welcome to WikiMatrix's very own wiki. 
This wiki is designed with these purposes:
- to document the features of the various Wiki engines that are comparable through the WikiMatrix system; and
- to record the evolution and features of WikiMatrix itself.
The WikiMatrix wiki is open for everyone, so feel free to improve its contents.
The WikiMatrix wiki is based upon DokuWiki, so its Formatting Syntax rules apply.
If you have any problems, questions, or suggestions, please discuss them in the forum.
