P2Pedia: a peer‐to‐peer wiki for decentralized collaboration

Existing Wiki systems such as Wikipedia depend on a centralized authority and cannot easily accommodate multiple points of view. We present P2Pedia, a social peer‐to‐peer wiki system, where users have their own local repository and can collaborate by creating, discovering, editing, and sharing pages with their peers but without synchronizing them. Multiple versions of each page can thus co‐exist on each repository and across the network, which allows for multiple points of view.
