But we found that always going back and updating the wiki was cumbersome. We found it best to enter our comments in the mode we are working and then aggregate that knowledge using a keyword search. For example, if we are tracking our time, we add notes to the time entry. If we are updating a task, we add our notes there. Wikis are great for a lot of purposes, but for us, project management was not one of them. Wikis are great for centralizing knowledge for team collaboration.

I agree with "I don’t think a project can be managed using a wiki as the only project management tool." The tone of the first paragraph might suggest using a Wiki for all PM tasks, but I tried to outline some overuses of Wikis such as time tracking, bug tracking, etc. I'm suggesting project managers use the right tool for the task. For example, I use OneNote to draw planning diagrams and upload them to a Wiki page for comments. Time tracking and estimation is done in FogBugz but I might have a screenshot of the latest delivery probability graph. Garry,

It offers a lot of flexibility in the collaboration area. But I doubt that wikis are perfect project menegement tools. They lack control and planning features. They can curtaintly facilitate project team\'s collaboration, but I don\'t think a project can be managed using a wiki as the only project management tool. In the very beggining you mention project management tools that work like wikis.I don\'t know about all of them, but I\'m familiar with wrike, as we use it for a couple of our projects. What I like about it is that it has both flexibility and ease of use of a wiki and strong scheduling/rescheduling features. Wiki is a great technology indeed.
