Wiki styling & social tools: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:10, 15 November 2017

Intro

Today will be a collective exploration on different ways to style/structure a wiki with the set of social tools that are embedded in Mediawiki software.

To prepare for today we would like to ask you to think of the following questions:

which aspects or elements of the AA wiki would you like to emphasize?
what might help the visitor navigate the wiki and find interesting content?
what is shown that should be hidden and vice-versa?
what would the role of a customised skin be?

Reading suggestions
