Wikitorials according to the LA Times will be “an online feature that will empower you to rewrite Los Angeles Times editorials”.
Wiki for those not in the know refer to either a web application (most of the time) or a feature that allows users to add content that can be edited by other users. So my guess here will be that what the LA Times will create is sort of an editorial column of sorts that will be written by many different people. Who knows, either way it’s an awesome idea.
If local TV stations were more creative they could think up something similar to this for their sites as well for better interactivity with viewers. I know there are a couple things I feel could be “wikified”.
