A terms wiki is owned by a any community of interest or a community of practice that needs precise alignment about its mental models and the words that describe them. In TOIP, these groups typically correspond to working groups or task forces. Sometimes one group undertakes multiple projects, and each is worthy of its own set of terms. Whenever a set of terms is internally cohesive and managed by a crisply delineated set of stakeholders, we call the context in which it lives a scope. Each scope needs its own terms wiki.
