CNM Wiki vs Wikipedia

Although this Wiki utilizes the software initially developed for Wikipedia and, thus, looks similar, these two sources of knowledge vary significantly. The following table represent some differences.

Feature	Wikipedia	This Wiki
Purpose	Encyclopedia; a reference source	A combination of learning materials and enterprise data that is related to the Friends Of CNM and supports the learning materials.
Target audiences	Everyone	Everyone who is a part of or may consider being a part of the Friends Of CNM
Contributors	Everyone	Friends Of CNM
Content	"Summaries of knowledge from either all branches or from a particular field or discipline" (source: Wikipedia)	The data that is applicable to the Career Network Ministry (CNM) and the Friends Of CNM, as well as open to the public; the Friends Of CNM utilizes Fixett for its private data especially related to its cyber-security

To explore the difference further, one may compare two articles: (a) Business article at Wikipedia and (b) Business article at CNM Wiki.

CNM Cloud

This Wiki is empowered by the CNM Wikiware, which is the CNM app that is comprised of two MediaWiki instances supported by CNM Servers. Consult the User's Guide for information on using MediaWiki.

One instance empowers the Wiki services (you are utilizing it while reading these lines) and another, at wiki.next.friendsofcnm.org, is created for learning and testing purposes. It is called Wiki.Next and, particularly, it empowers hands-on training of WorldOpp fellows.

CNM Cyber Team considers switching from MediaWiki to another software. Currently, four new instances are installed at CNM Trial Server.
