  • 7.5: Wikis

    • Matt Barton's "A Student’s Guide to Using Wikis" Page

      Read this article. It is important to know how these open source documents work because many entries on wikis (like Wikipedia) are about companies and the people that work for them. Knowing how to create and correct any information on a wiki related to you or your company is a great skill to have as a technical writer.

    • M C Morgan's "Getting Started on Writing a Wiki" Page

      Read this article.
