What is The Smart Wiki?

The Smart Wiki is a Collaborative Modeling environment, or Miki for short. The Miki is to spreadsheets, what Wikipedia is to the encyclopaedia.

Mikis exists to support better decision making by allowing people to build evidence based models of real world problems in an open, collaborative and decentralised manner. All content is covered by the Creative Commons 3.0 Licence which means that it is free and will remain so.

The Smart Wiki lets users Explore other peoples models, Capture facts from unstructured sources, Model those facts in support of a position or recommendation and Share that analysis with others. They provide complete traceability into where numbers come from, allowing people to make better arguments supported by facts.

Dynamic Tables

The Smart Wiki can be used to create dynamic tables, that are updated automatically as pages within the wiki change. This table for example shows a list of different types of Analysis that has been performed in the wiki. As new analysis is performed, the table is updated automatically.
