1. A wrapper for a smoking article comprising: a paper substrate comprising cellulose fibers and a filler, the paper substrate having a width and a length;a plurality of discrete reduced ignition areas extending in the width direction on the paper substrate and being spaced along the length direction;at least one burn accelerating area positioned in between a first reduced ignition area and a second adjacent reduced ignition area, the burn accelerating area comprising one or more burn promoting agents; andwherein the reduced ignition areas have a permeability of greater than 20 CORESTA while having a diffusivity of less than about 0.5 cm/s at 23° C., the reduced ignition areas containing one or more burn promoting agents in an amount less on a weight per area basis than the amount of burn promoting agents contained in the at least one burn accelerating area and wherein the amount is from about 0.05% to about 0.4% by weight. 2. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the at least one burn accelerating area contains one or more burn promoting agents in an amount from about 0.5% to about 2.5% by weight. 3. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the reduced ignition areas are formed from a non-fibrous film-forming composition and being free of cellulose fibers or particles. 4. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the reduced ignition areas comprise a starch composition. 5. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the reduced ignition areas comprise an alginate composition. 6. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the plurality of discrete reduced ignition areas comprise circumferential bands having a width of from about 3 mm to about 10 mm. 7. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the wrapper includes first and second untreated areas, the first untreated area being located between the first edge of the burn accelerating area and the first reduced ignition area, the second untreated area being located between the second edge of the burn accelerating area and the second reduced ignition area. 8. A wrapper as defined in claim 7, wherein the first and second untreated areas comprise circumferential bands having a width of from about 0.1 mm to about 4 mm. 9. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the reduced ignition areas only comprise areas where a reduced ignition composition has been applied to the paper substrate such that no other topical treatments have been applied. 10. A wrapper for a smoking article comprising: a paper substrate comprising cellulose fibers and a filler, the paper substrate having a width and a length;a plurality of discrete reduced ignition areas extending in the width direction on the paper substrate and being spaced along the length direction,at least one burn accelerating area positioned in between a first reduced ignition area and a second adjacent reduced ignition area, the burn accelerating area comprising one or more burn promoting agents;wherein the educed ignition areas have a diffusivity of less than about 0.5 cm/s at 23° C., andwherein the reduced ignition areas contain one or more burn promoting agents, the amount of burn promoting agents contained in the reduced ignition areas being from about 5% to about 60% of the amount of burn promoting agents contained in the at least one burn accelerating area on a weight per area basis. 11. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein at least one burn promoting agent is present in the reduced ignition areas according to a discontinuous pattern. 12. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein a first burn promoting agent has been applied continuously over a surface of the paper substrate and a second burn promoting agent has been applied only in the at least one burn accelerating area. 13. A wrapper as defined in claim 1, wherein the reduced ignition areas have a diffusivity at 23° C. of from about 0.15 cm/s to about 0.5 cm/s. 14. A smoking article comprising: a column comprising a smokable tobacco; anda paper wrapper surrounding the column of the smokable tobacco, the paper wrapper comprising the wrappers of claim 1. 15. A smoking article as defined in claim 14, wherein the smoking article has a pass rating according to ASTM Test E2187-09 of at least 75%. 16. A smoking article as defined in claim 14, wherein the column comprising the smokable tobacco has a density of from about 160 mg/cm3 to about 250 mg/cm3. 17. A wrapper for a smoking article comprising: a paper substrate comprising cellulose fibers and a filler, the paper substrate having a width and a length;a plurality of discrete reduced ignition areas extending in the width direction on the paper substrate and being spaced along the length direction;at least one burn accelerating area positioned in between a first reduced ignition area and a second adjacent reduced ignition area, the burn accelerating area comprising a burn promoting agent, the burn accelerating area including a first edge facing the first reduced ignition area and a second edge facing the second reduced ignition area;at least one untreated area, the untreated area being located between the first edge of the burn accelerating area and the first reduced ignition area; andwherein the untreated area and the reduced ignition areas are free of the burn promoting agent. 18. A wrapper for a smoking article comprising: a paper substrate comprising cellulose fibers and a filler, the paper substrate having a width and a length;a plurality of discrete reduced ignition areas extending in the width direction on the paper substrate and being spaced along the length direction;at least one burn accelerating area positioned in between a first reduced ignition area and a second adjacent reduced ignition area, the burn accelerating area comprising at least one burn promoting agent, the burn accelerating area including a first edge facing the first reduced ignition area and a second edge facing the second reduced ignition area;at least one barrier region, the barrier region being located between the first edge of the burn accelerating area and the first reduced ignition area; andwherein the barrier region and the reduced ignition areas are free of one or more burn promoting agents, or contain one or more burn promoting agents in amounts less than present in the at least one burn accelerating area on a weight per area basis. 19. A wrapper as defined in claim 18, wherein the barrier region and the reduced ignition areas contain one or more burn promoting agents in an amount less than about 0.4% by weight. 20. A wrapper as defined in claim 18, wherein, when the wrapper is incorporated into a smoking article and tested according to ASTM Test E2187-09, at least 75% of the smoking articles self-extinguish. 21. A wrapper for a smoking article as defined in claim 18, wherein the reduced ignition areas comprise a starch, an alginate, or mixtures thereof. 22. A wrapper as defined in claim 18, wherein the amount of burn promoting agents contained in the reduced ignition areas and the barrier region are from about 5% to about 60% of the amount of burn promoting agents contained in the at least one burn accelerating area.
