From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki_engine
It is hard to determine which wiki engines are the most popular, although a list of lead candidates might include TWiki<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWiki>, MoinMoin <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MoinMoin>, PmWiki<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PmWiki>, DokuWiki <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DokuWiki> and MediaWiki<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki>(Google trend history comparison<http://www.google.com/trends?q=TWiki%2C+MoinMoin%2C+PmWiki%2C+MediaWiki%2C+DokuWiki&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all>). A list of some of those available is included below, and another can be found at Wiki:WikiEngines <http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiEngines>. I guess "notable" is being judged by the same nebulous criteria as "popular". I find it interesting EM's comment: it doesn't pass the main criterion proposed at WP:SOFTWARE<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:SOFTWARE>(a Google search <http://www.google.com/search?q=Kwiki+-site%3Akwiki.org+-CPAN>doesn't reveal any non-trivial published works). This new version of the article also spends most of its time describing what is supposed to happen in the next version. WP:NOT a crystal ball<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_crystal_ball>. -- Earle Martin <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Earle_Martin> [t<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Earle_Martin> /c <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Earle_Martin>] 21:15, 23 January 2007 (UTC) I did the google search linked: Personalized Results *1* - *10* of about * 532,000* for *Kwiki -site:kwiki.org -CPAN*. (*0.29* seconds) Not sure what EM used as the criteria are for "non-trivial" when there are over 1/2 million results on Google. And that's only where Kwiki was identified in the content of the sites indexed. And we all know that Google does not index the entire Internet, as many knowledge repositories are either not searchable by Google, or they are simply Intranet sites not connected to the Internet. I'm sure that with Ingy's list of notable sites using Kwiki and articles written about it, perhaps a page similar to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWiki can be proposed. BTW, ArchLUG <http://www.archlug.org/kwiki/> has been running Kwiki since launching (2002?) and is considered the primary community site for the Xandros community external to Xandros itself, and has been since its launch as a Linux distribution. Also, it is odd that this page references Kwiki as having a notable text parser. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wiki_software#Perl-based The IkiWiki article listed has also been marked as "non-notable" and requested deletion. I'm not sure that this article describes anything that Kwiki doesn't do: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PodWiki Perhaps it's next on the list of deletion for "non-notability" on the list of Perl-based wiki engines. FYI -- the link on MeatBallWiki to Earle's WikiBot is broken, and the actual page hasn't been updated since March 2004, http://downlode.org/Code/Perl/bots/wikibot/ IIRC, EM originally contributed the IRCBot plugin but subsequently removed it. This was back when Spoon was with us. Not sure what his beef is with Ingy. There may also be an angle into notability due to Ingy's authoring the IO::Spiffy modules and numerous public presentations on technologies and modules that he's authored. Of which Kwiki is the premier POC for. I would agree that they're certainly more notable than a few CGI::Wiki plugin modules with limited, niche functionality when compared to frameworks and foundation modules that expand the capabilities of the Perl programmer and community. How many downloads from CPAN constitutes "notable"? Mike808/ -- sed '/^[when][coders]/!d /^...[discover].$/d /^..[real].[code]$/!d ' /usr/share/dict/words
