'''MediaWiki''' is the name of the software that is used to run [[Wikipedia]], as well as other projects. This software is owned by the Wikimedia foundation, who also own Wikipedia itself. The software is notable for invading privacy and encouraging stalking and harassment, by its controversial ability to have a watch list and to see contributions of users. They also have no ability to ignore a harassing user.
