Oh, the Wikis I have seen!

It seems that wikis have as many different looks as websites do. Some are "Just the Facts" utilitarian (SJCPL Subject Guides), some look just like the familiar Wikipedia (Library Success, NO ALA), some are eye pleasing and fun (BookLoversWiki) and some look like they were created for a specific event (NO ALA 2006, Booklovers). The reputation that Wikis have gotten (facts are unreliable -- anyone can post) has caused all the sites listed on "homework" to restrict who can add/change content.
