During the last years wikis have become important information portals. Nevertheless, research in wiki accessibility is an
often neglected topic. This paper takes a basic analytical and systematic step inside this new and complex area, explores
the peculiarities, possibilities and limitations of wiki accessibility. Wikis give rise to certain accessibility limitations
but also do offer new ways and concepts to improve accessibility. We present basic concepts and extensions to the wiki markup
that are to our minds inevitable for improving the accessibility of wikis. It is pointed out, that wiki accessibility is not
something totally new but mostly a complex conjunction of yet separated classical discussions. However there are also wiki
specific accessibility aspects.
