Wikis
What are wikis?
Wikis are essentially a webpage with an edit button. A wiki allows you to collaborate online. You can make wikis public or password-protected. Users can add pages or documents to a wiki and edit them—and you can view changes made by different users or roll back to previous versions. Wikis reduce the potential confusion of having multiple contributors to documents or projects.
There are many free and inexpensive wiki services, such as PBworks , Wetpaint , and Wikispaces .
Ways to use wikis in response to HIV
- Work with others to create resources such as websites, fact sheets, and policy papers on HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and research.
- Maintain up-to-date HIV resource lists.
- Create calendars for HIV-related events.
- Use as an internal tool to write grant applications.
