Creating a Wiki

This site can provide very basic wiki functionality. It will allow anyone on the site to edit all posts of type wikipage regardless of who is the original author. To setup a wiki:

  1. Enable the wikipages module in administer >> modules if it isn't already turned on.
  2. Enable the freelinking module in administer >> modules.
  3. Create an initial wikipage using create content >> wikipage.

To create additional pages, site users can merely edit any existing wikipage and use a CamelCase word. The CamelCase word will then become a link to a new page. Or, users can create new pages by enclosing a word or set of words in double square brackets: [[New Page]].

As is common in wikis, the site does keep track of revisions of wikipages. However, only the teacher can access revisions.
