In the News (Sat 28 Nov 09)

  
  RapidWeaver Manual | PmWiki | Wiki Farm Terminology
It is suggested that documentation authors avoid the agricultural terms, as tempting as they may be, and keep in mind that a wiki in a wiki farm is like a server in a server farm.
The home wiki needs special consideration because it holds the components that are shared by or affect the operation of all the wikis in the farm.
This is sometimes used to indicate a process, sometimes used to mean a single wiki in a farm, and sometimes refers only to the shared components of a farm.

  Wiki farm
A Wiki farm is a server or a collection of servers that provides wiki hosting.
While it is technically usually feasible to create new pages, and edit old ones on almost any wiki, it is considered bad form to do this if the edits do not reflect the purpose of the wiki.
The communities associated with some wikis may react very aggressively to the creation of such pages, and delete them almost as rapidly as they are created.

 PmWiki | PmWiki / WikiFarms
There are many ways to configure wiki farms; this page describes only one, in an effort to make it as simple as possible for the administrator who is creating a farm for the first time.
The primary motivation for using a wiki farm is to reduce the amount of administrative work involved in managing several wikis.
Because the wikis in a farm are all independent, it is difficult (but not impossible) to provide services that require access to more than one wiki.

 Wikka: (Virtual) Wiki Farms….a proposal
In essence tho’, what a wiki farm really is is a way of an individual “managing” the virtual space that one is operating in so that one feels comfortable with the size of the community with which one is participating.
Wiki Farm Management could be done using an interface like this.....
Right now, if you were a small to medium group of people that were looking at becoming larger, you’d choose a perhaps larger than necessary wiki so it had the potential for growth….the virtual wiki farm idea allows wikka to be used in both small settings AND in large ones if the community expands.

 Deep Thought: Geek Site of the Week
As far as which wiki farm to go with, there are apparently many choices and they range from free (supported by Google text ads) to $10 a month and beyond into the enterprise level, with more privacy being available if you pay more.
A wiki can be about any topic just like a normal website, but what makes them ingenious is that (most) viewers are often welcomed to contribute on the spot and do anything from correct spelling to write new pages without asking as long as you stay within basic respectful guidelines for your behavior.
So this time’s Geek Site of the Week has a good chance of being valuable to you because wiki farms and wikis in general are treasure chests of unregulated but bountiful hints at the information you are answer and can often link you to professionally researched material that you can cite in school and work.

A wiki farm is a third party that hosts your wiki, a collaborative Web site that allows authorized users — or in some cases, anyone with an Internet connection — to rapidly and easily change the content of pages, as well as view a history of changes that others have made.
If you are new to the concept of a wiki, Exploring the World of Wikis offers an overview of the medium, along with questions for evaluating whether a wiki is right for your organization.

fields on a family farm are connected (clicking the logo takes you to the farm home page, there's a new link to the field home page, and each field has links to adjacent fields)
Once the farm administrator has set up the farm, anyone with an account on the server can generally set up their own field in the farm.
The CookBook farm is more like a family farm -- each field grows its own crops, but they are all visibly part of the same farm.

So I’ve been working on and off for a week and a half trying to figure out how to run a large scale wiki farm for the UH Libraries where all the Wiki’s would have the same basic template.
