Until I told them that I was the admin of the tv show wiki I am involved with, they didn't even know what a "wiki" was. They'd heard of Wikipedia and thought that's what I was talking about. To them the word "wiki" = wikipedia. Since knowing that I am the admin of a wiki, not once in our conversations have any one of them mentioned that they had looked at a wiki, found a wiki interesting, etc.

We take a lot of things for granted because we are involved in wikidom, but Jane Doe and John Doe are clueless about the existence of wikis and what they're about. Good points. While some of my friends are aware of Wikia, most aren't. They mainly use Wookiepedia as a resource for an RPG we've been doing for the past couple of months.
