A wikki is different from a blog, because with blogs you just post your thoughts and ideas. No one else can change your site, they can comment but they can't edit the blog. With a wikki page anyone can edit the page. Herein lies the problem, reliable information can be posted and then anyone can log in and change the information so that it is no longer reliable. Therefore when viewing wikki's it would be more for entertainment or planning purposes not for real information or reliable information.
It could be used for a group project for people to collaborate. However, I might worry that anyone could get on the page and sabotage the site. It could not be used as any type of assessment tool, the information is not reliable and you would have no way to monitor those who input the data or information.
