Work with a community wiki
Use a wiki to share resources with the community and collaborate with fellow members.
For more information on adding the Wiki widget, see Adding widgets to the Community. You must be a community owner to add the Wiki widget to a community.
Add a wiki to a community provides a shared environment where members can work together to create and update information in an ongoing, collaborative process. Wiki membership is managed by the community and there is a direct mapping between membership roles. Community members with the editor role can create and edit pages in the wiki. Members are given the editor role by default. Users with the reader role or who are not members of the community can read the wiki content but cannot make any contributions or changes.
When add a wiki to a community, the wiki is automatically given the same name as the community. A Wiki area is added to the community's Overview page and, when community members start to populate the wiki, this area displays links to the five latest wiki updates. A Wiki link also appears in the navigation sidebar. Click this link to open the wiki.
From the community, we can do the following
- To create a new wiki page, click Create a Wiki Page.
- To open the wiki and see the latest activity, click View All.
- To edit wiki settings, click Community Actions > Edit Community, and then click the Wiki tab.
