− | == 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.
