The wiki's goal is to be a record of the historic campus, including, but not limited to: historic and current buildings, people of historic note, future plans, catalog of plants on the campus grounds, and a record of campus events, both historic and recurring.
The List the Library is looking for includes:
A wiki that is free to create and free of subscription
Unlimited storage
Something easy to use
Filters for language and inappropriate content
Keeps records of usage
Able to have pictures
Perhaps interactive maps
Using WikiMatix I found a list that met these requirements: Okay. You want a hosted offer with WYSIWYG editing and a page history. And searched through that list for ones that fit the requirements already laid out. Plus some wiki sites failed to open as I narrowed down to less than ten.
I narrowed it down to GeniusWiki, Wagn, and Wikia. I am more familiar with Wikia, plus its target audience and restrictions is more in line with the needs of the university. So Wikia it is then.
