Tips on engaging your community
Add your advice or lessons learned below. It would be nice if you'd also include a contact and "I wiki at .." with your comment.
| Suggestion | Contact (optional) |
| Give a demo of an existing Wiki | |
| Bring an expert to explain how the collaboration can be improved | |
| Brainstorm with the potential users to understand the apprehensions | |
| Have a clearly defined, relatively narrow and clearly communicated purpose or goal for the wiki. | Matt from EditMe |
| Move some information to the wiki that the group you want to use it relies on. This will get them using it right away. | Matt from EditMe |
| Don't start with a blank slate - but don't create tons of empty pages either. You want to hint at proposed content enough to encourage group members to participate but not overwhelm them with the task. | Matt from EditMe |
| If you add a page, put some content there. Placeholders are frustrating and can make the wiki seem neglected. | Matt from EditMe |
| Remember that if your group isn't web savvy they won't be initially comfortable with the idea of editing a web site, no matter how easy it is. Consider a hands-on training session. | Matt from EditMe |
