| ==Is it OK to post my question in more than one forum?==
| |
| | |
| Please choose only the most appropriate forum to post in. Posting the same question in multiple forums is of no benefit. It only fragments the support you receive and makes it more difficult for other users to find the correct information in the future when they do a search.

| ==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.
