Can someone please add some information about Sharepoint as a wiki, for comparison? 194.105.120.80 (talk) 15:29, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] IpbWiki

I don't think IpbWiki belongs on this list, as it isn't wiki software - it simply bridges IPB with MediaWiki. Oldiesmann (talk) 22:24, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sharepoint wiki

I agree with the need to incorporate Sharepoint 2007's wiki software.

Some general comments.

1. It's built on Sharepoint's list framework, so it's very easy to extend the metadata.

2. Change tracking is at the list row level.

3. The incorporated rich text editor is quite good.

4. I have only used it with IE 7, no FF experience.

5. I believe links will update, so if you change the title of a page the links don't necessarily break. My testing is not complete though, I suspect the links can be broken. I'm disappointed Microsoft didn't build links off the row ID rather than the title.

6. You create pages with the same "new page" convention used by wikipedia
