wiki
A collaborative web site comprised of the perpetual collective work of many authors. Similar to a web log in structure and logic, a wiki allows anyone, using a web browser, to edit, delete or modify content that has been placed on the web site including the work of other authors. In contrast, a blog, typically authored by an individual, does not allow visitors to change the original posted material, only add comments.

-phobia (suff.)
An intense, abnormal, or illogical fear of a specified thing: xenophobia.


Actually, what I describe as WikiPhobia isn't an illogical fear at all, so I suppose it isn't really a phobia. I just very much dislike the idea of someone coming along behind me and changing what I wrote. If I didn't notice for six months, I might come back and think I wrote something other than what I did write. Since my memory is dubious at the best of times, this is a terrifying way of re-writing Reality. Especially given the fluid and shifting nature of reality...
