| ==Why does Moodle Docs use MediaWiki rather than the Moodle wiki module?==
| |
| | |
| MediaWiki was chosen for our documentation wiki because it is designed to be used by thousands of people collaboratively editing a large numbers of pages. It has lots of features, such as inter-language linking, [[MoodleDocs:Templates|templates]], [[Special:Categories|categories]], namespaces and page redirects, which are put to good use in Moodle Docs.
| |
| | |
| The [[Wiki module|wiki module]] is designed to be used within a Moodle course. Its features include nine different group options and the option to amend [[Wiki permissions|wiki permissions]] at course or activity level. It has far fewer tools than MediaWiki for handling large numbers of pages.
