-== MediaWiki ==
-
-MediaWiki is the software used for Wikipedia [http://www.wikipedia.org/] and the
-other Wikimedia Foundation websites. Compared to other wikis, it has an
-excellent range of features and support for high-traffic websites using
-multiple servers (Wikimedia sites peak in the 100K+ requests per second range
-as of January 2012).
-
-While quite usable on smaller sites, you may find you have to "roll your own"
-local documentation, and some aspects of configuration may seem overcomplicated
-because MediaWiki is primarily targeted as an in-house tool.
-
-The MediaWiki software was written by:
-* Lee Daniel Crocker
-* Magnus Manske
-* Jan Hidders
-* Brion Vibber
-* Axel Boldt
-* Geoffrey T. Dairiki
-* Tomasz Wegrzanowski
-* Erik Moeller
-* Tim Starling
-* Gabriel Wicke
-* Antoine Musso
-* Evan Prodromou
-* Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
-* Niklas Laxström
-* Domas Mituzas
-* Rob Church
-* Jens Frank
