The Moodle wiki(s) enables participants to work together on web pages to add, expand and change the content.  This page can serve to provide information about different Wikis that may be used with Moodle.

This is the standard Wiki which is part of 1.5 .  It was developed from a version of Erfurt wiki. A flavor of it is still being used in Moodle 1.8.

This is an addin wiki for Moodle.
[[Dfwiki]] is the MoodleDoc page.
'''DFWiki''' is an alternative [[wiki]] module to the current (1.5.3) Moodle [[Wiki module]].


Dfwiki for Moodle 1.5.3 can be found [http://appserv.lsi.upc.es/palangana/moodle/course/view.php?id=15 in dfwiki home page], and in the Moodle [[CVS]]. The [http://appserv.lsi.upc.es/palangana/moodle/course/view.php?id=15 dfwiki english home page is here].
Implemented in core.


Team leader is Marc Alier (Ludo).
===Filters===
We need filtering before and after conversion to HTML.


= Erfurt wiki =
===Editors===
Named for the developer's hometown in Germany, it was the basis for the standard wiki included with Moodle.
New mforms editor element should support all types of formats.


= New wiki =
===Formats===
Currently is this wiki available as a plug in for 1.6.x 1.7.x and 1.8.x. "We ([[Dfwiki_module#Dfwikiteam|Dfwiki team]]) hope it will be the standard wiki in Moodle 1.8", says Team leader Marc Alier (ludo). He was mistaken for two releases.. According to the Moodle [[Roadmap]] NWiki is definitevelly into Moodle 2.0
Responsible for conversions and diffs.


The NewWiki16 plugin has more MediaWiki(MoodleDocs)features. For example, the characters that create, the automatic headers (<nowiki>= = or == ==</nowiki>), automatic numbers (<nowiki># or ##</nowiki>) and bullets (<nowiki>* or **</nowiki>) work. It also has a page discussion tab and provides a page outline based on headers at the top. There are two HTML edit tool bars available. The 1.6.x version does have a site map on a "navigation" tab, but not the standard pages found on the Choose Wiki links pulldown.

==Tiddlywiki integration==
Should use section titles instead of byte ranges.
New wiki can interoperate with the Ajax based portable [http://tiddlywiki.com tidlywiki].
See [[Tiddlywiki integration]]


= MediaWiki =
=Version & diffs=
This is the "big" wiki.  Will Taylor says "I have MediaWiki integrated now with Moodle versions 1.5.3 and 1.6, very easy to set up.  Users need to log in separately to [[MediaWiki]] to edit, but they are authenticated off the Moodle database, so use the same username & password without needing to create a separate account on MediaWiki.  Using the MediaWiki permissions system, I have editing privileges reserved for registered, logged-in users, and read privileges open to the world - but you could configure this in many ways if you wish.  Check out the various projects created in MediaWiki (Wikipedia, Wikiversity, Wiktionary, etc.) to see the potential of this platform." 


MediaWiki should be used as a '''site-specific''' wiki. The standard Moodle wiki, or Dfwiki should be used as course-specific wiki.
Diffs not part of wiki code anymore, instead handled by format plugins.
