A Semantic Wiki is a Wiki enhanced with technologies developed by the Semantic Web community in order to encode more knowledge than just structured text and hyperlinks. Usually this extra knowledge is available in a formal language, so that machines can (at least partially) process it. In particular, machines can calculate new facts from the given facts.

[edit] Purpose

As Wikis often serve as CMS or knowledge management tools, Semantic Wikis try to enhance them and allow users to make their internal knowledge more explicit and more formal, so that e. g. it can be searched in better ways than just with keywords. Sadly, one limitations of Semantic Wikis is scalability.

Some systems are aimed at Personal Information Management, some more at knowledge management for communities.
