So, what did Mark find out since 2010?

As I see it, [[Portland Pattern Repository]] is an archive. No chance to edit. No new edits in this millennium. It might really been the first wiki ever.--[[User:Manorainjan|Manorainjan]] ([[User talk:Manorainjan|talk]]) 10:50, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

:This seems not to be the full truth: this wiki was dedicated to a specific problem. Maybe you can read something about it in the artima article [http://www.artima.com/intv/wiki.html Exploring with Wiki]. The wiki idea evolved since this first(!) successful approach; even today it's possible to contribute to this old wiki (if you meet their topic(s) and style). <br/> Best --[[Wolf Peuker|Wolf]] | <small>[[User talk:Peu|talk]]</small> 10:19, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

:: '''Only now I see''' that you are talking about [[Portland Pattern Repository]] not [[WikiWikiWeb]]. I know that it was hard to distinguish these both wikis (or was it only one)?... <br/> I think one of them could get the ''goal reached'' status...

The PPP is not a wiki I think. Repository means a place to store something. It is more a collection of what came out of Wards Wiki, the result of refactoring, an essence of the result until Jun 4, 1996. After this date refactoring seems to be thought of going on the wiki itself because the wiki way was experienced and trusted by then. Technically PPP is different. The pages there end on *.HTML, Links are different and so on. Wards website has the same minimalistic look and feel as PPP and wiki have. Therefore they can easily be confused. PPP may retain its own page on WikiIndex for historical purpose but should clearly be marked as not being a wiki. I see it more as an intellectual backup of most of the good on Wiki from start to 1996. [[User:Manorainjan|Manorainjan]] ([[User talk:Manorainjan|talk]]) 11:57, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
