Contents
What is a wiki?
A wiki is a web application which allows people to add, modify, or delete content in collaboration with others. In a typical wiki, text is written using a simplified markup language or a rich-text editor. Wiki content is created without defined ownership or leaders; the structure of the wiki emerges according to the need of the users.
What is this wiki?
This wiki is used to document and discuss the NeuCart product.
How is this wiki different from other wiki sites?
Unlike the popular site Wikipedia or other similar wiki sites, this wiki has been restricted so that pages are not freely editable by the general public. Instead, the documentation is editable only by NeuCart personnel. Talk pages are editable by the general public, allowing users to ask questions or offer suggestions about content in an article.
How can I request a page?
Use the instructions on the request a page discussion page.
How can I suggest an edit on a page?
Each article has a corresponding talk page. Talk pages allow users to discuss the content of an article. To access an article's talk page, click the "Discussion" tab at the top of the page, or use the link at the bottom of the article, just above the category listing.
