Answer to Question 2

Answer: Using wikis is a great way for teams and other groups to collaborate on writing projects, from brief articles to long reports and reference works. The benefits of wikis are compelling, but they require a unique approach to writing. To be a valuable wiki contributor, writers must let go of traditional expectations of authorship, including individual recognition and controlthe value of a wiki stems from the collective insight of all its contributors. Often, team members will need to be encouraged to edit and improve each other's work. Writers should use page templates and other formatting options to make sure the content is consistent with the rest of the wiki. It is also important to recognize that many wikis provide both editing and commenting capabilities, and participants should use the appropriate tool for each. Finally, new users should take advantage of the sandbox, if available, which is a safe, non-published section of the wiki where contributors can practice editing and writing.
Wikis are valuable because of the collaboration that they make possible. Ease of communication is crucial in creating an effective wiki. Effective wiki collaborators let go of traditional authorship expectations, encourage team editing, use templates and other formatting options, separate editing and discussion capabilities, and use the sandbox.
