Wiki patterns
How does one make wikis work? I posed this question in a previous post on this blog. It seems as though there are many
answers to be found on the Wikipatterns
wiki. From Wikipatterns:
Looking to spur wiki adoption? Want to grow from 10 users to 100, or 1000?
Applying patterns (What is a
Pattern?) that help coordinate peoples' efforts and guide the growth of
content can give your wiki the greatest chance of success. Equally important is
recognizing anti-patterns that might hinder your wiki, so you can fix them or
avoid them altogether.
This site contains a directory of patterns and anti-patterns, and a guide to
major stages of wiki adoption that explores patterns to apply at each
stage.
