Wikis are collaborative. Each person brings their strengths and contributes things that they are good at to the project. Group members are expected to work with one another and contribute meaningful work to the wiki. Revisions either improve the editing or add additional content. You do not delete content of another person unless that content is found to be in error. If such error is found, you are to communicate via discussion your reason for deleting the information. Each topic to be discussed will be created under a different "thread" or topic under discussions. The wording is intelligent and meaningful. Wikis may be read by a large audience outside the class, and authors must keep that in mind.
