Make wikis for multiple people on one site

[beary]

I have a website hosted on my server at work. I am thinking of setting up a fairly simple wiki on the site. However, I'd like to make it so that each of around 100 people (students in a school) can login and create their own wiki. So technically I guess it wouldn't be a wiki, as I only really want each student to contribute to their own wiki. But hopefully what I want to do makes sense. Could someone point me in the direction of either some good (free) code designed for this, or else some pointers for the steps I'd need to take to set it up myself.

Many thanks

Do you want to build up a discussion board like this web site? or a blog?

Um, well neither really. What I want is to make it possible for a person to easily add information, definitions, etc to their own "site"/"wiki"/whatever. For a new entry, they should be able to specify things like the category, the title, the description, a field they select perhaps for understood/still to learn, and then when they enter it the current date should be added. This piece of information is then added to all the others on that person's area. All information should be editable/deletable by that person.

And I need to repeat that for 100-150 people (who will each be able to log in and access only their own information), on the one site.

As I write this, it occurs to me that probably a script sending the information to a mysql table will work fine. I suppose I was thinking that if I had one wiki per person, that would accomplish the same thing. But perhaps it's overkill.

Does this make more sense? What do you think?

beary, This is Huge. IMHO I'm not a great developer, sure It will take at least 3 months to make such a application tool.(Basic One) By going through your points, what I can say, It's better to use a Bulletin Board Tool Like in this board, Sure It will handle your requirement. There are so many high end, Free to use applications for this. phpbb is nice one among them. and free. anyway don't depend on my suggestions, let others to find this thread.
