TDL Research Wikis
General Information
The Texas Digital Library offers scholars and researchers at TDL member institutions the opportunity to set up their own Research Wikis, hosted by the TDL, to share knowledge and collaborate in any of the myriad ways wikis allow. TDL Research Wikis use MediaWiki software, the same platform that the world’s best-known wiki – Wikipedia – is based on. MediaWiki is a powerful platform for creating wikis that does not require technical expertise in XHTML or Web design, and it stores previous versions of pages after edits have been made, so that you can avoid permanent damage to your site in case of vandalism or spamming.
The Texas Digital Library staff hosts and maintains the MediaWiki software, while TDL users have control over how their Research Wiki is set up and used.
