:::People may find that they don't have much to offer on the wiki, but participation can be simple such as editing spelling and grammar. '''Participation in a WIKI could be considered a true form of democracy, as opposed to web-pages'''(where the author can decide to post or delete comments).

:::''WIKIs did not exist when many of us were educated.''
