I've used wikis before, but I'm new to trying to set one up. I have a somewhat conceptual question.
I understand that wikis deal with articles and diffs to those articles. Can MediaWiki (or any other wiki system) deal with groups of related diffs that get applied to multiple articles all at once? This would be similar to changesets in BitKeeper or subversion repositories.
Thanks for your help.
Not exactly what you're looking for, but have you considered MediaWiki's template capability? This allows one page to be inserted into other pages upon rendering. A later change to the template page is then reflected on all pages that use the template page. See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Template
