Wiki is now official

A recent headline from CILIP announced wiki has become the latest batch of words to be added to the Oxford English Dictionary.

In quoting from the online version of the Independent ©

Wiki is defined as: "A type of web page designed so that its content can be edited by anyone who accesses it, using a simplified mark-up language."

Pity someone recently had the thought of turning the OED into a Wiki style product according to another headline; it's not even 1st April yet. Nothing gave me more pleasure than deleting that gem.
