How to handle wiki engines where we find only one wiki using it. Maybe the article page should be added to [[:Category:Wiki Engine]], and we dont bother creating a a category for it? -- [[User:Harry Wood|Harry Wood]] 05:56, 31 Jan 2006 (EST) | How to handle wiki engines where we find only one wiki using it.

Yes, that sounds fine. | :Yes, that sounds fine. | ||
Alternatively, we could pretend that all those unique wiki engines are all using the same wiki engine. We would name that wiki engine something like "Unique wiki engine". | :Alternatively, we could pretend that all those unique wiki engines are all using the same wiki engine.

"Rare wiki engine" would be short and polite (NPOV) while still accurate. "Unique" would not be good applied to a class, especially if two or more were sufficiently similar that neither should be called "unique" and/or if one might find a second user and therefore definitely not be unique in one sense.

:::Actually there's already something called [[:Category:Proprietary]] which was presumably created with this kind of intention. I reckon maybe we should put these wikis into the that category, then just mention on their article page, that they are powered by proprietary software called 'blahblah'. Note this will significantly reduce the number of subcategories in the 'Wiki Engines' category. -- [[User:Harry Wood|Harry Wood]] 10:05, 13 Feb 2006 (EST) | |||
