A Wiki For Davis

I learned today that my town now has its own community wiki. The Davis Wiki was started by a number of students and first went live at the end of October. It has grown rapidly, now having well over a hundred contributors and 600 pages. The wiki is particularly strong in describing the town’s eateries, and also has a growing number of pages on quirky features of Davis, such as the building known as the Death Star, Cows, and the Locomotive Hedge. An excellent feature of it is the interactive Davis map that allows you to click on and insert landmarks that link to wiki pages.

Pica and I have both signed up as editors, Pica quickly leaping in to add a page on our favorite Thai restaurant in town, Thai Nakorn.

  1. That is a terribly cool idea. Every place should have a wiki!
