About Mediawiki
MediaWiki is a free, open-source wiki engine originally built for Wikipedia by the Wikimedia Foundation. It lets you create and manage a collaborative website where anyone can edit pages through a web browser. MediaWiki handles large-scale content with features like categories, namespaces, talk pages, and a powerful templating system.
MediaWiki runs on PHP and stores content in a MySQL or MariaDB database. It supports extensions for spam filtering, visual editing, caching, and search. The software integrates with LDAP, OAuth, and custom authentication plugins. It works on Linux, Windows, and other platforms, and runs on standard web servers like Apache and Nginx. The latest stable version is 1.42.1.
This tool is ideal for documentation projects, internal knowledge bases, community encyclopedias, and any group that needs a structured, user-editable website. MediaWiki is free software licensed under the GPLv2, with a large global community and extensive documentation available at mediawiki.org.
