Rather than links to an external wiki (which if i understand correctly, is what the existing wiki module provides, along with wiki markup? Pleasse corect me if i'm wrong). I want a wiki within Drupal. This would allow for integrated searching across wiki and Drupal content, backlinks to non-wiki pages, avoiding redundant work in style editing, and no doubt other nifty possibilities.

Is anyone here working on such a thing, or do you know of anyone working on such a thing?

Would you like to work on such a thing?

I have already searched this entire forum for mentions of wiki in thread titles. I've seen here (and elsewhere, off-site) reference to development of a module implementing a complete wiki in Drupal. I imagine this could build on one of the many PHP wikis already in existence. olav's comment in this thread mentions using phpwiki, but given that his comment comes just before the initial release date of the existing Wiki module it looks like that's what he's referring to.

I would like to see integration with a real wiki within Drupal, but it's probably not the highest feature request on my list. (That all centers around event calendaring for community-driven sites.)

I would like to see this too. I'd like a module with functionality similiar to the wikipedia project, where multiple authors can contribute, roll back, and view history of changes.

I'd like this to be different from normal pages nodes that are owned by the author.

Someone said that they were working on a combination wiki syntax plus page creation. So, more like a "real" wiki. I can't find the name of the person in my logs right now.

A wiki in Drupal would most likely only borrow syntax from a wiki -- it would not integrate an existing one.

There was this thread on the dev-list:

Titile.module accomplishes many functions of wiki engine. The most important thing is that it allows internal link with wiki syntax (e.g. []). With this and the bbcode.module, it is relatively easy to build a wiki site.
