Since Wiki is Hawaiian for "fast"...
here are some possible Hawaiian
terms...
Aka = shadow, reflection, etc.
hence: Akapedia
Haka = shelf
hence: Hakapedia (sounds like "Hack"!)
Pepa = paper
hence: Pepapedia
Helu = read
hence: Helupedia
Puke = book
hence: Pukepedia
(Not very desirable!)
Kuiki (from Kapa kuiki) = quilt
hence: Kuikipedia, Kwikipedia
Well, maybe the Hawaiian connection
isn't such a good idea after all :-)
Since,
Jay B.
