When Wikis Go Bad
Over the last few years the use of wikis has become really popular. For every wiki evangelist I have met, I have also come across
as many who hate wikis. I’ve used them extensively and I too have gone through
a love-hate relationship with the wiki.
Having recently done some work on the evolt.org wiki, I decided to
write down some of my thoughts about why sometimes wikis are phenomenally
successful, and others just never seem to work.
Like a lot of similar issues, none of this is rocket science.

Regelmatig zie ik treurige voorbeelden van mensen die met goede bedoelingen aan een opdracht beginnen, en vervolgens verschrikkelijk voor de gek worden gehouden, omdat wat zij zien als een uitdaging en als iets dat ze met liefde doen, door de tegenpartij wordt gezien als iets heel anders, helemaal niet romantisch of geïdealiseerd, maar rauw en simpel.
