The homepage for Nicole Sharp's Website has been moved from

  • nicolesharp.net/index.htm

to

  • nicolesharp.net/w/index.php

Both of these indexpages can now be accessed from:

This change in the homepage represents a shift from a web-first (HTML-first) webdevelopment model to a wiki-first (MEDIAWIKI-first) webdevelopment model. Previously, NikkiWiki was a secondary site intended for notes or incomplete works compiled in wikimarkup before being (re)published in webmarkup (HTML or hypertext markup language) on the main site. But this just ends up as twice the work. Other Wikimedia MediaWiki sites such as Wikipedia, Wikibooks, and Wikisource prove that MediaWiki is more than capable of handling completed works including those with complex content and simply using it as a "quicknotes" system is an underutilization. A traditional HTML website or homepage is thus unnecessary if a wiki is present on the domain. The exception of course is for a wikifarm where no single wiki is primary, as seen with the HTML homepages for Wikimedia and Wikipedia.

A major advantage of abandoning webdevelopment in pure HTML in favor of wikimarkup instead is for intercompatibility with other MediaWiki sites such as Wikipedia, Wikibooks, and Wikiversity. Wikitext can be freely copied to and from NikkiWiki and Wikimedia since both are using the same software (Wikimedia MediaWiki) and the same license (Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike). [1]
