EGI wiki how to... use


This document will provide some rules how to use EGI wiki to keep the space clean, searchable and easy to use.

Before you create a page, please read and understand all of the Rules below.


Main principles

In this section you will find a list of principles which you should follow:

Pages hierarchy should be set by using categories
More information about the category structure for operations can be found in Section Page categorization
Page name and URL should be meaningful and as short as possible
The rules how to create a good URL/Wiki page name can be found in Section Page naming
Lead users through your pages by using page content and toolbars
If you want to show to the user what kind of information can be found in your pages please consider to use toolbars or/and index page which will contain all necessary information. How to use toolbars see Section Page structure
Keep wiki space clean and up to date
If you don’t need any more your wiki page or create one with typo please let wiki administrator know so it could be deleted. Try also to keep all your pages up to date – data and links. More information how to do that in Section Wiki space cleaning
Take a look at Wikipedia
EGI wiki is a wiki, not a general page. So to get the best of it we should use it as a wiki. Take a look at Wikipedia where everything is simple, properly categorized and searchable. See http://wikipedia.org
Read again no. 2 ;)
