A few tips to get started

 

1. Try starting with cloud-hosted wiki software that doesn't need to be locally installed.

2. Try out the features of the wiki software in the sandbox, the online equivalent of a rough draft.

- Examples of wiki software with sandboxes: Mediawiki, PmWiki, MoinMoin

- Examples of existing wikis with sandboxes: Wikipedia, EduTech, Wiki-site (Mediawiki is the wiki software)

3. Create your own space on the selected wiki by filling in a form (create a login and assign a name to the wiki). The syntax usually used for the address is the assigned name followed by the name of the wiki software.

For example, http://redacthese.pbworks.com (name of the created wiki: redacthese – wiki software used: pbworks)

- Examples of wiki software: CafeWiki, ZohoWiki
