Perhaps Karim or anybody else who has experience with Wikipedia can share
more knowledge about it.

Wikipedia is updated by its own users... namely anybody. 

For security purposes, perhaps access to the editing can be
password-protected to those from the list in order to guarantee accuracy
and/or privacy regarding what is commented... but that is just a technical
detail that can be decided along the way.

An article can be created describing the nature of the incident. As users
log in and add more content, sections within the article are created...
namely the different sectors within the incident structure. The
Wikipedia-type layout allows for users to simply click on the menu and jump
into any specific section within the article. So, theoretically somebody
could click on the incident article, and quickly jump into the logistics
section where somebody who was organizing and/or requesting any specific
resources created a section describing the particular needs.

Anybody with more experience using Wiki can add more information. Anybody?

Could  the Trauma Wiki be used to post and update the status of different
sectors  within a disaster in order to allow members of any  given
forum/team/community to access the information 24/7 in a format such  as a
"situation board"?

I really like that idea.   How does it work.   I have  never used the Trauma

wiki
