The wiki mind or wiki spirit is the fundamental presumptions of everyone who believe in wiki.

  1. To assume good faith. This is the very basic presumption that every wiki user must have.
    • What to do if you later realize that this presumption is not true?
      1. Do not use wiki, or
      2. Just pretend to believe that this is true
  2. Respect for freedom and equality among wiki users in editing the page.
  3. Focus on creation-oriented editing rather than suppression-oriented editing.
    • creation-oriented editing is, for example, editing new page, adding more information
    • suppression-oriented editing is, for example, page deletion, blocking user, protecting page
  4. To be bold in updating pages
