I have explore the
Techniques Wiki https://www.projectmanagement.com/wiki/techniques/
and the Wiki https://www.projectmanagement.com/wiki/

First I found a lot of almost empty descriptions and a few that are duplicated. Others are very well done.

I would like to thank those that added valuable contribution. And encourage other to contribute.

Have you explore it?
Should it be promoted?

What do you think?

From my point of view is a great feature of this site, that maybe should be promoted in the home page. For example last updates, or something like that.

A few months ago, I explored, found and reported some entries that were discussions, spam, and the site administrator cleaned it.

In my case, I found the entry about Emotional Intelligence, and I started to complete, but due to time constraints or because I spent more time participating in the discussions forum... it can't be finished, not yet.

I would like to also encourage the team members to participate and contribute.

@Maria thank you for your feed-back
Nice suggestion to have it in the home page.
Also I think we could set a alert for updates, like a message one a day/a week on change in the Wikis.
I plan to make a few addition and edition, reason for exploring it.

The main idea of the Wiki's is to have everyone contribute and add value. You can start a Wiki even if it was a few lines (Emotional Intelligence Wiki is am example) then people start contributing and building on that.

Unfortunately, I do not see much contributions there so probably Wiki's need to ne promoted as some members might not be aware of it or how it works.

@Rami, thank you for your feedback
I agree that a Wiki can be started with a small text, and people just keep on contributing to make it more and more valuable.
Sadly some wiki where initiated in 2012 with a basic frame, no content specially those on Agile, no update where made since.
And you are right it is not very visible. That is a part of the reason behind this discussion, and even here not much action!

You're all right about the need to promote the wiki. If I didn't happen across this thread I would never have known we had one.
