Logically linked questions

(another way of indicating "frequently asked questions" which have not yet been asked)

  • Why mediawiki instead than wordpress ?

Well, first mediawiki is actually being used by the wordpress creators (automattic) for their developer documentation

as proof of powerfulness of its features. 

Then, because the business model of mediawiki and wordpress are completely different. Wordpress allows an easy use but as soon as you want to expand or complete your website you are pushed (or constrained) to paying solutions. Mediawiki (as well as our platform) is completely free, including any desirable advanced feature, at cost to deal yourself with the code (starting from wikicode itself, and proceeding with the creation of dedicated extensions). Then, because the intrinsic anti-immediacy of mediawiki force at the quality of contents: dealing with wikicode (either entered through the help of visual editor, or not) on the one hand slow down the content creation, and on the other provides you with a powerful set of formatting and structuring tools.
