'1. '(sometimes initial capital letter) a website that allows anyone to add, delete, or revise content by using a web browser.

Wikis are not a community, they are a collaboration. Sure our wiki has a community, but creating one was certainly never the main goal here. I hope you realize that at one point this wiki had neither a chat or a well functioning forum. Users collaborating are by definition a community, you can't have a collaboration without having a community. Users that use the same site are also by definition part of the same community.

''com·mu·ni·ty

noun

1. a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common.

2. a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals.''
