Contributing Knowledge

The knowledge base on the [[Anglo-Indian World]] website uses a system known as a [[wiki]]. Each article in the wiki system is called a wiki-post on the [[Anglo-Indian]] World website.

A wiki-post can be created by everyone viewing the site. A non-registered user, a registered yet not logged in member and a logged in member can all create a wiki-post by selecting 'Contribute' in the above 'Action Bar' and then selecting 'Wiki-Post.'

Logged in members receive 40 site points for each newly created wiki-post.

All wiki-Posts are editable by all members (generally posts are editable by only the creator unless they are wiki-posts) and therefore well edited wiki-posts benefits from the expertise of more than one author.

Once posted, information is not lost. A revision capture system is in place that captures each and every posted edit made to an existing wiki-post.

(You are reading a documentation help post.) On wiki-posts, logged in members can use the revision button (invisible to non-logged in site visitors) which appears underneath the title of every wiki-post, to see all the previous entries for the same wiki-post.

The wiki-system also connects every peice of information to form an online encyclopedia of inter-connected wiki-posts.

You can use double brackets around words to link them to each other. As an exapmple: '[['Contributing Knowledge']]' without the 's links to posts that have the title 'Contributing Knowledge'

 Block posts, jokes, image galleries (when the galleries are ready) also contributes to the knowledge of visitors even if they are not directly connected to the knowledge base (wiki system of member provided information that is similar to an online encyclopedia.)
