[[category: Wiki Edit Mode]]
'''Category:OpenEdit''' — the [[wiki]] sites listed here on WikiIndex in this [[Special:Categories|category]] are '''open to editing''' by anyone, including [[Anonymity|anonymous]] internet [[user]]s; often called '[[IP editor]]s'.  You do not need to register with a [[username]], nor log-in prior to editing.  This usually applies to ''the vast majority'' of normal article pages on the [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] site (within the main '[[namespace]]'); but not necessarily to the whole wiki (in particular it need not apply to the wiki 'home page' (or '[[Wiki main page|main page]]'), which is often locked completely to reduce [[vandal]]ism), nor [[template]]s (as vandalism to high-importance templates can have a disastrous effect on the entire wiki).  The downside to open editing is that the site may be subjected excessive [[spam]] and/or vandalism; and will need a team of vigilant [[sysop]]s to limit the said effects of spam / vandalism.
