You choose a wikitemplate and then edit its parts.
So I can easily wiki up my page, even if I wish to make a complex layout resultin in:
<div class=maintxt> main text </div> <div class=leftbar> ..<div class=topbox> ..topbox content ..</div> ..<div class=midbox> ..midbox content ..</div> ..<div class=botbox> ..botbox content etc...-- pashute, Jan 06 2022 (?) Check out www.dbpedia.org [4and20, Jan 12 2022] Can you be more specific about what, for the purposes of this idea, defines wiki-ness?-- pertinax, Jan 07 2022 I think this is a Wiki, which is used to collaboratively design a new template.
No hang on it's a template that you can use to design or set up a new wiki.
Or perhaps both.
Or wait... maybe its neither.-- pocmloc, Jan 07 2022 No I'm not proposing a new wiki.
I AM proposing that in wikipedia (for example) I should be able to set {{wikitemplate | leftbar | rightbar | menu:top | footer:big}} and I get a page that looks like this: oh I forgot no links in HB... anyway you get the idea. Bootstrap inside wikipedia.
Each section of the page has the wiki menu on it, and I edit it like a full page with [[conventional wiki markup]]-- pashute, Jan 12 2022 So the purpose of the invention is to facilitate nesting wikis?-- pertinax, Jan 12 2022 random, halfbakery
