Hello all -
We use MediaWiki for user documentation. As the sole author, I can build and manage new versions of the wiki in order to support software version releases.
The issue is that we now have partner companies who want to create their own support pages, and use a custom skin (with their own logo/skin).
Is there a practical way to allow me to continue to make regular updates to the base wiki, without overwriting the partner content? Can we provide each partner with a space they control, individually?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Best, Evelyn

What do you mean with "new versions of the wiki"?
You would update pages, so you would only need not to write the same page from both sides (even then, MediaWiki would warn you before overwriting another person save at the same time, not to mention the history). If you want to separate them from mediawiki POV, place each group of support pages at a different namspace. But any sane convention would work to "avoid overwriting each other's content".
