The Green Light Wiki (also stylised The Green Light Wiki) was created in Python by Ben Kovitz[1][2] (the man who has suggested the wiki platform to the Wikipedia founders). Green Light Wiki was an extremely basic, primitive former wiki engine; and whilst it supported basic wiki markup for editing, it did not have any 'preview' function. Furthermore, it had no revert function to 'undo' vandalism or spam (although you could manually select a previous 'version' from the edit history, copy and paste the content, and save that). Recent changes were not listed by year, and probably most crucially, it had no form of access control. It also had no facility for monitoring statistics for page count and views.
One notable difference, and standout feature, was the colour of its internal links, aka 'wikilinks'. Unlike other wiki engines which use blue, the Green Light Wiki used green for its active wikilinks, although it still used red for non-existent internal links.
The following 8 wiki sites were powered by the former Green Light Wiki wiki engine software, (defunct since early 2013). They were also hosted at GreenLightWiki.com, and all wikis displayed Google advertising as a column on the right side of their page(s).
