	Prompt: Please create an image of a character named wok, that can be used as the mascot for a wiki farm called WikiWok. WikiWok Wok (or WoK or wok stands for web of knowledge) is a small round robot-like character with two antenna-like arms. When it encounters two related wiki pages, it grabs one with each arm and connects them. Occasionally it becomes tangled in all of the links. Its personality can be described as child-like, enthusiastic, and eager (perhaps too eager) to connect ideas and entities (wiki pages) together.

			'''Woking'''

			We could use a made-up word of "woking" or "wokin'" for the act of organizing wiki content.

			Using zet.wiki, zetwiki.org, or zettiki.org. Note: [[wikipedia:Zettelkasten\|Zettelkasten]] is a note-taking system developed by a German scientist in the 1700s and has been widely used among the academic community.
