Overview
Wiki organisation is the concepts of using a wiki to build functional organisational systems. These systems involve Human level roles as well as processes exucuted by the computer.
Objects & Relationships
At the most fundamental level, all systems describe objects and the relationships between them. Objects are containers of structured content which means the content is composed of named items, each having a particular value. The names of the items are determined by the class of object, ie what kind of object it is. In the wiki, objects are just normal articles and the object/relationship aspects are encoded into the wikitext of the article.
In the wiki relationships between objects are described using the square-bracket notation (eg. links, categorisation, semantic annotations), and an object's informational state (its structured content) uses the curly-brace notation of templates with named parameters. The wiki-parser processes curly braces first which results in what's known as expanded wikitext, and then in a separate second phase of parsing it processes the expanded wikitext which results in the final HTML output. This division means that the curly-brace syntax is able to construct square-bracket syntax, thereby being able to define the linking, categorisation and semantic relationships of an object.
- Note that the expanded wikitext can be requested from the wiki by adding templates=expand to an action=raw request.

- Red Links and wanted links
- Every page, action or query has a web address
