The user interface presents information in graphical forms. We often refer to these forms by the same names as the information.
We create and share wiki pages using an interface in a web page. When we say page only context will make clear what we mean.

Wiki Page displayed with the web page.
The user interface exists within a browser tab. Many tabs mean many independent copies of the interface.

Wiki pages are routinely retrieved from and maintained within the origin site. A modified background indicates some deviation from this routine.
