Benevolent Expert Wiki was created for Experts to share their expertise.

First, let's define terms

Benevolence is a giving, caring personal attribute. A benevolent person has the inclination to perform kind, charitable acts. A benevolent person is a sharing person.

An Expert is a person with a high degree of skill in or knowledge of a certain subject. An experienced, skilful, or practiced person; one skilled or thoroughly informed in any particular department of knowledge or art. Honestly, we have never met a single person who does not know something we do not know, from less than 5 years old to well over 100 years old. Everyone is an expert in some way and we want to listen and learn.

A Wiki is a collaborative website whose content can be edited by anyone who has access to it.

You may know and use Wikipedia Paris that has thousands of contributors and provides information to millions. We find the Paris section of Wikipedia excellent and powerfully, a very detailed Wiki. But this Wiki is so overpowering that we find it is sometimes not accessible and not as easy for what we want to do.

You may know and use Wikivoyage Paris. Wiki Voyage was created for fellow travelers with many hundreds of contributors. Although excellent, it again may be too complex for our target audience, especially those who would like to contribute.

The Benevolent Expert certainly does not have the volume of views as the popular Wikis. Our Wiki is for folks like you and me who provide in plain language and provide information in which we are expert.
