Wikis are Web-based applications that allow all users not only to view
pages but also to change them. The success of the Internet encyclopedia
Wikipedia has drawn increasing attention from private users, small
organizations and enterprises to the various possible uses of wikis.
Their simple structure and straightforward operation make them a serious
alternative to expensive content management systems and also provide a
basis for many applications in the area of collaborative work. We show
the practical use of wikis in carrying out projects for users as well as
for maintainers. This includes a step-by-step introduction to wiki
philosophy, social effects and functions, a survey of their controls and
components, and the installation and configuration of the wiki clones
MediaWiki, TWiki and Confluence. In order to exemplify the possibilities
of the software, we use it as a project tool for planning a conference.
