Introduction
I've been managing the MediaWiki at my work for some time. I didn't appreciate it at first because I enjoyed the convenience of tools like Simplenote, Notion, and Google Docs. But I've come to love the service in terms of being able to get a large amount of information publicly to my team.
Tagline
Your self, your community, your cosmos.
Perks
After working with HTML markup with my website and having to use a workflow where articles are first written in Simplenote and then copied to HTML, MediaWiki streamlined the process well. I can write, edit, and present all in one place. Side effect is having a part of my website that doesn't carry the same CSS, but I'll live with that. It's also a place where I can play with extensions and configurations without tinkering with my team's wiki.

- Internet: A place to talk about the larger communities of the internet.
- Cosmos: Basically everything else, mathematics, physics, education. A place to write how to guides, organize and share research data.
