Here we describe the way in which wiki is made for mapping and curating.
Given the capacity of a wiki to hold forks or clones of pages in other wikis, wiki is naturally a tool **for curators**.
In a toolstack of tools for organisers and co-makers, wiki counts as a tool in the 'mapping' class of the Extended Trinity of tools. see Tools for peer-to-peer collaboration and coproduction, Digital toolstack and Mapping & navigating trio
Page-to-page federating within a wiki means that network maps of links between topics (pages) on a site - like the map at the bottom of this page - can be drawn using the Graphviz plugin tool in wiki Advanced writing
