Edit warring again? --YiFei | talk 09:28, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't think so... and I try very hard not to get into an edit war. They are the most unwiki thing! I have clicked on the 'wiki' tab at Reddit and was taken to a page that looks like a wiki, and I have linked the RecentChanges to the wiki, I am not sure why it is not thought to be a wiki. Maybe help me understand why you are not considering it a wiki? Best, MarkDilley
 * Wiki reddit in general is not a wiki. Some documentation on the site is but most of those wikis are either entirely inactive or generally not active. The URI you provided is one of several wikis on reddit. (e.g. http://www.reddit.com/r/RadicalChristianity/wiki/index ). Most of the wikis on reddit aren't really run as wikis with a lot of collaboration or consultation with other users on the direction of them. So you can't really say that reddit itself is a wiki (it's a social networking site where you aggregate content and discussion in a forum) but it's also got about a quarter million wikis which exist in some state (many of them very crude or small like the one I linked in the last sentence).

I think of RedditWiki similar to MozillaZine Knowledge Base - I like it when people work wikily and want to note it. MarkDilley
 * Granted It's worth noting, no doubt. One of the biggest sites on the Web uses wikis in its documentation. All I dispute is that reddit as such can't be classified as a wiki (even if a small portion of it is) and that we should discuss all of these subreddit wikis together instead of creating 250,000 articles on a bunch of dormant wikis.

Agreed, MarkDilley
