Wiki governance issues to consider • Wikis should have different look & feel than sites with official “structured” content • Define any rules concerning usage and appropriate range of topics • Determine guidelines for deleting “abandoned” sites • If possible, create a scheme for site ownership • Set expectations on the level of user support that will be provided • Set search scopes to include or exclude wikis
