@band it does, although #MassiveWiki still doesn't seem quite user-friendly enough?
Or, perhaps #MassiveWiki is more or less as friendly as other wiki engines, and maybe we just haven't yet found many communities that are really engaged around growing and maintaining a wiki.
(Talk about weird synchronicity, I wanted to show somebody how to spelunk through Mastodon space, and in about 5 semi-random hops, I had navigated to that very post - before I had seen your post!)
@peterkaminski (1) Massive Wiki, maybe like all wikis (but not Mediawiki?) has a barrier to web editing and commenting (hypothesis annotation maybe close enough?). (2) you are correct about finding or not finding communities engaged in wiki use and tending. (3) these thoughts deserve capture on (which?) Massive Wiki we have? (4) and how do you spelunk through Mastodon space (an inquiring mind wants to know)?

@band re spelunking Mastodon, still discovering, but:
A) Start with a list of instances, say:
https://instances.social/
Look for smaller instances, maybe use a keyword.
Go to instance(s), do a search, or look at "Local", or click "Profiles directory" in the lower left.
B) Search hashtags on one of the big instances, e.g.:
https://mastodon.social/tags/rivers
https://mastodon.online/tags/rivers
C) The classic social network trick: find an interesting person's profile; spelunk their Following and Followers; recurse.
