This is the boilerplate for template:Wiki Engine. Use this template for generating an infobox in the 'mother' or 'parent' article or category for a specific wiki engine; such as WikiWikiWeb, UseMod Wiki, MediaWiki, MoinMoin, XWiki, Wikidot, etc. The {{WikiEngineFeatures}} will generate an external link to a specific page about the wiki engine on the WikiMatrix wiki.

{{Wiki Engine

<<<--Description of wiki engine goes here.
Describe its origins and development, person who created it (founder), and if evolved ({{tag|fork}}ed) from another 
existing engine.  Is it {{tag|open source}} and/or {{tag|free software}} ({{tag|FOSS}}), or is it commercial, if 
so, at what price?
Try to add its programming language and software license (inc. version in this prose), and detail of any 
other features or attributes.  Try to list any database requirements, and any [[:Category:Wiki syntax|wiki syntax]] 
options; such as does it support [[CamelCase]], [[interwiki]], [[free link]]s, [[backlink]]s, etc.-->>>
