Since there already exists information in the largest encyclopaedia in the world – why would anybody need another wiki? We love Wikipedia! But let's see some ideas.

Why use BrandWiki instead of Wikipedia?

Old rules don't rule.
Wikipedia is a grown platform, in internet terms it's old (15 years). Over the years, it has grown quite an administrative apparatus. Editing on Wikipedia follows, wait:
It also has an own image for rules, maybe symbolising the difficult undertaking. Among the rules, there are nice 10 simple rules, also an advice to ignore all rules. The article about how to write your first article takes about 22 minutes to read.
Wow! Here in the BrandWiki, you get 1 simple page with friendly guidelines and easy forms to fill out that won't need no introduction.
Transparency about opinions over neutrality.
Wikipedia follows the neutral point of view. While this shall be the goal of any information platform, there are also situations, sometimes it can be better to show individual opinions and mark them transparently as opinions - instead of just publishing pure facts.
Spread the power.
Monopolisation, in any aspect, is maybe not a good idea: It's killing competition and gives power over many to a few.
Oh, and Semantics.
