Subject: semantic wiki

A semantic wiki is a wiki that has an underlying model of the knowledge described in its pages.
Regular wikis have structured text and untyped hyperlinks (such as the links in this article).
Semantic wikis allow the ability to capture or identify further information about the pages (metadata) and their relations.
Usually this knowledge model is available in a formal language, so that machines can process it. The technologies developed by the Semantic Web community build the basis for reasoning about the knowledge model.
Capital Market Wiki is a semantic wiki. Its articles are organized in accordance with a Capital Market Taxonomy using the MediaWiki Semantic Wiki software extension. (Source: Capital Market Wiki)
