What's relevant is that the WMF doesn't regard "wiki" as a protected
mark. There are zillions of wikis out there, and whether they are
actually massively editable (and in my experience, most of them
actually are not) is irrelevant to the question of trademarks and the
WMF. You don't need to be a lawyer to figure that out.
