Default White work or candlewicking

Are these a similar technique and the candlewicking just with fatter
cotton thread?

Here is a short article on candlewicking from www.about.com

http://crossstitch.about.com/library...=candlewicking

it says candlewicking is a form of whitework because it is
traditionally done in white yarn/thread.

I hope this helps
