A '''user''' is anyone who [[editor|edits]], [[developer|develops]], or even reads a [[wiki]]. In the case of [[Wikipedia]], there are many users who only read the encyclopedia but do not participate in creating content. In [[closed wiki]]s, readers may be required to be editors. In a restricted editing wiki, such as [[Scholarpedia]] it is assumed that there will be many more readers than editors but all are users.
