On this topic, I'm working on a paper (or series of papers) that articulates
some of the problems in "selling a wiki concept" to others. I would
love to hear comments, stories (both successes and failures), or
suggestions from others about this.
I already know of several of the largest barriers:
(1) perceived lack of security and/or control of the wiki,
(2) the markup is seen as being too complex, or wiki lacks a WYSIWYG
editor, and
(3) the markup is seen as being too limiting, and cannot achieve
all of the functionality of a pure HTML/XHTML/XML environment.
Anyone have any other barriers, comments, or ideas on this they'd like
to share?
