-First, git is an open-source version control system. In other words, when developers create something (e.g. a mobile app), they make constant changes to the code, releasing new versions up to and after the first official (non-beta) release. Version control systems keep these revisions straight, storing the modifications in a central repository. This allows developers to easily collaborate, as they can download a new version of the software, make changes, and upload the newest revision. Every developer can see these new changes, download them, and contribute.
+Wikicoding (also known as wikitext or wiki-markup) is a type of code or syntax used to create and format wiki pages. Wikicoding takes place in Mediawikis, an open-source wiki platform that runs on websites like Wikipedia, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GCpedia GCpedia], and the GCcollab Wiki.
-However, people who are not involved in the technical development of a project can still download the files and use them. Git is the preferred version control system of most developers, since it has multiple advantages over the other systems available. It stores file changes more efficiently and ensures file integrity better.
