=== Wikis === {{main|Wikis|Wiki software}} In the past, web pages were only created and edited by web designers that had the technological skills to do so. Currently there are many tools that can assist individuals with web content editing. Wikis allow novices to be on the same level as experienced web designers because wikis provide easy rules and guidelines. Wikis allow all individuals to work collaboratively on web content without having knowledge of any markup languages. A wiki is made up of many content pages that are created by its users. Wiki users are able to create, edit, and link related content pages together. The user community is based on the individuals that want to participate to improve the overall wiki. Participating users are in a democratic community where any user can edit any other user's work.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Farkas|first1=Meredith G.|title=Social Software in Libraries: Building Collaboration, Communication, and Community Online|date=2007|publisher=Information Today|location=Medford, N.J.|isbn=978-1573872751|pages=[https://archive.org/details/socialsoftwarein0000fark/page/67 67β68]|edition=2nd print.|url=https://archive.org/details/socialsoftwarein0000fark/page/67}}</ref>
