How to create a construction wiki
Want to start your own wiki about structures, ducting, bricks, procurement or anything else to do with the built environment?
We can create a branded specialist wiki for you - saving you the cost, risk and time of trying to build your own platform from scratch.
Your wiki will be:
- A fully functional wiki, allowing users to create articles and collaborate to edit and improve them.
- Branded with your colours, logo and strapline.
- Provided with its own home page that you can edit and update.
- Populated with pre-existing content from Designing Buildings Wiki so that it launches with articles already on it.
- Linked to other relevant content on Designing Buildings Wiki so it forms part of a comprehensive knowledge base used by 8.5 million people a year.
- Linked back to your website and social media channels so people can follow you and share your content.
We will design and develop your wiki ready for launch and moderate user behaviour once it's operational to ensure your reputation is protected with the minimum effort required from you.
And because your wiki will be within the existing Designing Buildings Wiki platform, it will be part of a site that already includes more than 18,000 articles and is used by 35,000 people a day.
We already have five operational specialist wikis:
