Template:Wiki Engine The following wikis are powered by the Green Light Wiki wiki engine. They are also hosted at GreenLightWiki.com, and all wikis display GoogleAds as a column on the right of the page.

Green Light Wiki was created in Python by Ben Kovitz[1] (the man who has suggested the wiki platform to the Wikipedia founders). This is an extremely basic, primative wiki engine; whilst it supports basic wiki markup for editing, it doesn't have any 'preview' function. Furthermore, it has no 'undo' function to revert, say spam (although you can manually select a previous 'version' from the edit history, copy and paste the content, and save that). Recent changes are not listed by year, and probably most crucially, it has no form of access control. It also has no facility for monitoring statistics for page count and views. One notable difference is its internal links, aka 'WikiLinks' -- unlike other wiki engines which use blue, Green Light Wiki uses green for its active links (it still uses red for non-existant links).
