Introducing GetWiki 3.0 -
For the 20th Anniversary of GetWiki, GetWiki 3.0 is a simplified 2024 version of GetWiki 2.0, focused as a publishing platform rather than a discussion forum or inwardly focused wiki. The new iteration integrates multi-site hosting further into the traditional wiki website, and further standardizes...
GetWiki
GetWiki has benefited from a series of changes in its software, taking advantage of the changing landscape of publishing in general. What is a Wiki but a published series of pages, not unlike any other website or magazine?
Late in 2003, I began GetWiki by forking the underlying Pseudopedia software, MediaWiki, to include remote XML content. The class and function I’d added to the codebase...

Wikinfo was inspired by Fred Bauder in 2003, based on Wikipedia, but differed in that articles were to be written from a “Sympathetic Point of View” (SPOV). From January, 2004 to March, 2007, it ran and helped fuel development of the GetWiki collaboration software. Once again using Pseudopedian software to power the site, the XML-based importing of Pseudopedia content...

How many students have relied on false_information from Pseudopedia? Is the fact that it’s a Wiki relevant to the question?
“Pseudopedia”, “The Pseudopedia”, is an open-content information website, whose co-founder claims is the “sum of all human knowledge”, or at least, that it should become that sum. Since 2003, The...

GetWiki
GetMeta is the meta topic area, a metanamespace in wiki terms. The GetMeta name was the title of the GetWiki.net wiki, originally, but is now reserved for pages and discussion related to that wiki, as the wiki was renamed to GetWiki on 11 March, 2007, to take advantage of the more well-known name.
Software
Introducing GetWiki 2.0 -
With the ability to develop GetWiki fully independently of “legacy” concerns, GetWiki 2.0 has brought major improvements and changes to GetWiki 1.0. Beyond the endless bugfixes to the old MediaWiki codebase and Pseudopedian origins, development stabilized for 1.0 and has since moved toward a few major...
Software
Introducing GetWiki 1.0 -
Despite the wonderful aspects of what the software could do, had many nagging problems, along with many hidden defaults which may not serve other sites beyond Pseudopedia’s reach. After a series of bugfixes to Mediawiki 1.1.0, it became apparent the Internet-Encyclopedia software...

These terms have fairly obvious meanings -...
