Hi Larry, I think the four things Ross described are uses of the wiki, and wikipatterns are the strategies to help you get these uses in place. For instance:

1. Collaborative intelligence - the pattern I'd use here is Magnet to establish a wiki as the "go-to" place for people out in the field.
2. Participatory knowledge base - I'd use the FAQ and Seed it with content
patterns here.
3. Flexible client collaboration - Agenda is a good pattern for using the wiki to organize meetings with clients, and kickstart client collaboration.
4. Business social networks - I'd use the Corporate Directory and MySpace patterns as the building blocks of a social network.
