Well as mentioned before I was deciding which Wiki was best for me.
Well I have decided, DokuWiki is the winner!
You can see it here, https://www.stephenhucker.com/blog/wiki/
Not exactly very exciting is it?
So what will I use it for? Basically as a place to store all my notes on a particular subject. When I get new information I can update the Wiki easily.
Why not use my blog for this (what you are reading now) ? Mainly because a blog is not designed to be used as a reference source. It is wonderful as a diary where the latest entry is at the top and old entries are at the bottom. But that means this post which is at the top of the blog when I first wrote it will soon disappear from the front page.
When you run a reference site you want it to be like a book.
You know if you go to Chapter 2, it will always be in the same place. Wikis are like that. But unlike books you can easily update each ‘chapter’
