MediaWiki

[nicolesharp]

You should add the free open-source PHP/MySQL application MediaWiki (with default settings for a private wiki to avoid spammers creating accounts) to the available AlterVista applications. MediaWiki is extremely useful for personal notetaking as well as for multi-user collaborative writing, and can interwikilink to the Wikimedia projects, e.g. [[wikipedia:AlterVista|]] would create a hyperlink to the Wikipedia page for AlterVista. I was able to install it no problem by FTPing the MediaWiki files to my AlterVista directory and linking to my MySQL database here, but I'm sure plenty of users would be excited to take advantage of having it built in with the other free open-source PHP/MySQL applications available (as well as having an easy way to uninstall and reinstall if necessary).
