<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wikiindex.org&#x2F;Encycla" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wikiindex.org&#x2F;Encycla</a><p>&gt; Encycla isn&#x27;t quite a wiki, instead, it&#x27;s sort of a &#x27;next generation&#x27; wiki. Unlike a traditional wiki site, where everyone edits a single page, on Encycla, each user maintains their own personal copy of a page, and changes are suggested (pulled) between pages.

Tangentially, Git&#x27;s source repo ships with mw-to-git (aka git-mediawiki), a Mediawiki API client that lets you clone and edit wikis as repos, in its contrib: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;git&#x2F;git&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;contrib&#x2F;mw-to-git&#x2F;git-remote-mediawiki.txt" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;git&#x2F;git&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;contrib&#x2F;mw-to-git&#x2F;git...</a><p>&gt; Git-Mediawiki is a project which aims the creation of a gate between git and mediawiki, allowing git users to push and pull objects from mediawiki just as one would do with a classic git repository thanks to remote-helpers.<p>See also <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Git-Mediawiki&#x2F;Git-Mediawiki" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Git-Mediawiki&#x2F;Git-Mediawiki</a>

The system itself isn&#x27;t open source, yeah?

I&#x27;m confused about the goal here. Why do we need a Wikipedia alternative? Is it just about having a broader scope?
