Do you use a wiki program to keep continuity?

[Cabbages and kings]

So I heard that Brandon Sanderson's continuity editor uses a wiki program (I assume it's like Wikipedia) to keep track of everything and help her keep the continuity for Brandon's novel's.

Does anyone here use a wiki program, what is it's name and how much did it cost you?

for my long series i just created a series bible in word.

I have a few friends that like wikis. They said its a lot of work in the beginning but  super easy to use as you run through.

I have a private, password secured, wiki built into the backend of one of my websites. Wikimedia is free software that can be installed on any web server, and easy to use. A friend of mine built a web server with wikimedia on a Raspberry Pi.

Wikimedia allows for easy linking documents, which is useful when you want characters, places, technology, or any other information to be linked in multiple places.

My editor, bless her, has been keeping a series bible for years, and is now in the process of moving that to a wiki which fans will eventually be able to access. I use that bible all the time for continuity - and so does my editor! She makes sure no errors slip through the net. The wiki program my editor is working with is PMWiki and it's installed as a subdomain on my author website.

Freemind is ideal for this. (It's local, not online.)

I used several "Mind Mapping" tools in my career, including FreeMind. For writing, I found a maintained series bible, using MS Word and MS Excel, is best for me.

I've been building a wiki with CherryTree (https://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/), which is free.  I run it as a portable app on a flash drive.  It was easier to learn than I anticipated and has been working well for me; it's convenient that I don't always have to be online to use it.

I use OneNote.

I started with my series bible, and now I use it for everything. My to-do list, my physio stretches, etc. Love it.

I can share the relevant notebooks with other people, such as my audiobook narrator, so she can see all the character notes when planning her voices.

Co-signed: OneNote is very good for this type of activity. Going forward, I will revert to using OneNote.
