A Wiki is somewhat like a group blog. Each committee has one in a subfolder called notes. Any committee member can add material or comments their Wiki by selecting their committee notes subfolder and following the options offered.

There can be many pages in a Wiki, so each Wiki is kept each in an individual folder. Wiki's can be set private (to the committee) or visible (to all of GAP) based on their folder setting. The Wiki folders were initially set to private; a committee can change its own notes folder setting if they chose.

If you need to start a new Wiki, say, for a new topic that needs space separate from ongoing committee notes, contact Seth.Powsner@aya.Yale.edu"

For more information about Wiki's see

• Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, a tour-de-force of web based communal effort.
• What is Wiki by the organization that continues to support Wiki development.

NB: Help for OurGAP.org is a Wiki so that users can add information (and corrections) as required. Help differs from committee Wiki's in only two ways: it's frontpage has been replaced by the help matrix table of contents, and it's visible (open) for all GAP members. (It is not published, so it is not visible to non-members who can view our home page.
