;Welcome to WaterWiki! : '''''A website for knowledge sharing (a "knowledge map") and on-line collaboration among Water Governance practitioners and UNDP-partners in Eastern Europe, Caucasus and CIS.''''' ; A "wiki" : is different from other websites. Every single page is editable by you (need to be logged in), and not under the control of any editor or authority. Think of it as a large black board, where all users are given chalk and sponges to start writing up whatever they think is important to others, or to edit already existing write-ups as they deem helpful. : http://wikipedia.org (an online collaborative encyclopedia) is perhaps the best known and one of the most successful Wiki-projects, where ten-thausends of users are working constantly on millions of articles/pages/entries. A Wiki is particularly suited to collaboration among peers in networks and communities of practice. ; We strive for <i>authenticity, timeliness and applicable knowledge</i> : <i>Style is not important</i> : Feel free to use '''your own voice''', whatever feels comfortable for your contribution. ; Wikis are very easy to use : They allow any registered participant to edit and add content to the web-page. Just click on the "Edit"-tab at the top, and once you have entered your text, you just click on "Save page". All previous editions are saved in the "History" page. : If you have any questions about using the wiki, please refer to the tutorial in the [[Help]] pages, or contact [[Juerg Staudenmann]] ; There are only a few things to learn : before getting started. It will take a short time, about 15-20 minutes, to learn the basic steps, and will hopefully be relatively painless. : <b>For a quick introduction visit the [[Help]]-page</b> with simple instructions on using the site; Feel free to check out the [[Advanced Help]]-page afterwards to learn more about oprions and features that are at your disposal... ; <small>The WaterWiki Project : If you are interested in how we did the WaterWiki, or think of replicating this exciting project, see the [[WaterWiki Toolkit]] for information (or get in contact with [[Juerg Staudenmann]])</small>
