== What to share on the wiki (16.11.2009)<br>  ==
 
 
Extract of some good ideas about what to put on the wiki found in this article (in Danish): [http://www.erhvervsbladet.dk/vaekstmaskinen/brug-af-wiki-kraever-aabenhed Article on wiki usage]
 
*Everything from complex technical questions to daily information has its right to be put on the wiki.
 
*Knowledge is shared during projects and available to all employees no matter where they are.
 
* Easing the email overload, because employees can find information on the wiki, they don't have to ask everyone on email any more, especially is mentioned the company rules such as:
 
** Rules for time registration.
 
** Lunch meetings.
 
** Who makes the coffee (not so relevant for our company I guess).
 
* The company (Neoconsult) has used wiki for 5 years.
 
* The wish is to make developers put words on what they are working on while they are doing it, share the knowledge which is gathered.
 
* In Neoconsult's wiki the employees can also find information about:
 
** How the printer works.
 
** Which magazines and newspapers the company subscribe to.
 
** How time registration is done.
 
** What's for lunch.
 
** Upcoming events.
 
* Limiting the flow of disturbing emails.
 
* Important that the wiki doesn't contain technical stuff only, but also information about the company's day-to-day information.
 
* Wiki fits well with organisations which are based on trust and open structure.
 
* Everybody has access to all information and must be aware that the information must be treated carefully.
 
* Management must backup around the idea of openess and motivate the employees to play along.
