'''PhpWiki: ''a PHP WikiWikiWeb''''' — the self-titled {{tag|Wiki Engine|wiki engine}} which is compiled, or 'written' in the {{tag|PHP}} programming language.  However, it is not the only wiki engine written in PHP; most of the wiki engines are written in PHP (though obviously not all).  PhpWiki is an enhanced clone, or '{{tag|fork}}' of the original {{tag|WikiWikiWeb}} software; PhpWiki information is detailed at [[Wiki:WikiWikiWeb|WikiWikiWeb]] on the original wiki: '[[WikiWikiWeb]]', also known as 'Ward's Wiki'.  PhpWiki software is available in a number of [[:Category:Wiki Language|interface (user) languages]], including: {{tag|Wiki English|English}}, {{tag|Wiki German|German}}, {{tag|Wiki Spanish|Spanish}}, {{tag|Wiki Swedish|Swedish}}, {{tag|Wiki French|French}}, {{tag|Wiki Italian|Italian}}, {{tag|Wiki Japanese|Japanese}}, {{tag|Wiki Dutch|Dutch}}, and {{tag|Wiki Chinese|Chinese}}.<ref name=SF-PhpWiki-dl>[[SourceForge:projects/phpwiki/|PhpWiki download]]; ''{{tag|SourceForge|SourceForge.net}}'', Slashdot Media; retrieved 13 June 2021.</ref>

The PhpWiki software, despite being first released in {{tag|FoundedIn1999|1999}}, is still being actively developed and supported.<ref name=SF-PhpWiki-dl/>  And even in 2021, is regularly downloaded from {{tag|SourceForge|SourceForge.net}}.<ref name=SF-PhpWiki-dl/>  PhpWiki is released as {{tag|Free software|free}} and {{tag|open source}} software ({{tag|FOSS}}), under the {{tag|GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License version 2}} (GPLv2).<ref name=SF-PhpWiki-dl/>  PhpWiki supports many of the original [[:Category:Wiki syntax|wiki syntax]] options, including: [[CamelCase]], [[free link]]s, [[backlink]]s, and [[interwiki]], but notably ''not'' [[sister wiki]].  [[Redirect]]s are available, as are image linking.  [[Recent changes]], [[Red link|wanted pages]], [[orphan]]ed pages, recent visitors, and [[popular pages]] (see also: [[wikiFactor]]) are all included; and more detailed [[:Category:Statistics|statistical]] analysis is available via a plugin.
