Wikitorial is a term coined by the Los Angeles Times to describe a traditional editorial that can be edited in the fashion of a wiki (computer software that allows users to edit text and make changes to one document). On June 17, 2005, the Los Angeles Times wrote the first Wikitorial, entitled War and Consequences, on the subject of the War in Iraq. Below that editorial the paper wrote an invitation to its readers to rewrite the editorial in the wiki fashion. They called the experiment a "public beta" and suggested that it might be either a failure or a new form of opinion journalism.

Wikitorial was een porte-manteauwoord, samengesteld uit wiki en editorial - het Engelse woord voor hoofdartikel. Het idee was van , een redacteur van de krant, en het project stond onder toezicht van de redactie van de Los Angeles Times. Jimmy Wales, een van de oprichters van Wikipedia, was adviseur. Op 17 juni verscheen een hoofdartikel over de Irakoorlog dat vrijelijk kon worden bewerkt. Al snel ontaardde dit in vandalisme. Wales greep op 19 juni in, maar nadat de wikitorial was bedolven onder goatses werd het experiment nog diezelfde dag gestaakt. (nl)
