Wiki
Monoskop is a wiki where anyone can edit any article and have those changes posted immediately. Wikipedia has an article about how to edit pages.
Design
The Monoskop skin has gone through several iterations. It was originally inspired by the Wikipedia identity design by Moving Brands and Michael Murtaugh's modifications to the MediaWiki Monobook skin. The current version uses Peter Biľak's font Fedra Sans for the body text and Viviana Monsalve and Gustavo Ibarra's Enriqueta for the headings.
