PHPWiki allows anonymous input, i.e. overwrite existing pages, but keeps
a long and complete history of pages (wikipages). Any unwanted changes can be 
easily and instantly overwritten
using backup of old/desired page, from the history, or cut and paste from 
that saved wikipage. Very reliable
and essentially secure.
