wikiHow, "collaborative" has a whole new meaning!

wikiHow is unlike any other wiki you can find out there. Here are some points that makes wikiHow special:
1. It is not topic-specific! Most wikis that are not part of the WikiMedia Foundation are usually specific/specialized in one topic. wikiHow on the other hand is not. You can find articles covering any topic.
2. It is a "format-specific" wiki. You can always count on the clear, step based, task oriented of each and every wikiHow article.
3. All are welcomed to and can edit. Anonymous and registered editors alike.
4. Unlike most other wikis, wikiHow's editors can all patrol recent changes, so you do not have to be an administrator to do so.
5. The community of wikiHow is from all cultures, age groups, education levels and any other social classification you can think of. In wikiHow, there are NO classifications, all are equally welcome and appreciated.
6. The community, being a very rich one in scope and magnitude, is very friendly, helpful, helping, welcoming, appreciating and tolerating.
7. All wikiHow articles are shared under a creative commons license (CC-BY-NC-SA 2.5) even long before wikipedia turned to the CC license.
8. The site is based on the well established and familiar MediaWiki Software.
9. The site adds a great wealth of tools to the software as extensions that makes editing articles much less painful, much more fun.
10. You can always find something to read, or most importantly DO in wikiHow.

In brief, it is one of the best collaborative sites you can ever find on the web today.
