What is a Wiki?
A Wiki is like an encyclopedia that users can edit whenever they want. It allows for a universal knowledge on a subject that people can agree upon or take into consideration. Now Charas-Project has their very own!

The Charas-Project Wiki covers topics from specific members to the All of All forum. You can add your own member page and create articles dealing with the forum or the main website. Some of the most viewed articles include:
Useful Categories and Such
Articles That Need More Information - List of Templates - Charas Forums - Charas Forums Members - Charas Forums Moderators - History of Charas - Tutorials
