[Mediawiki-l] wiki versus Word, part 2

[McHale, Nina]

Hey, all,

Thanks for your quick and fantastic responses! I am loving this list. :)

I take the excellent point about looking at whether this is the right tool for the job. However, the decision to use a wiki comes out of two consultant recommendations to use a wiki and reactions to a failed Sharepoint intranet installation (dating to around 2000) that people hated because it required use of proprietary software, in that case, Microsoft FrontPage. Moreover, the specific decision to use MediaWiki was vetted through all of the proper channels, and no one raised any objections.

Thanks again, everyone!

Nina
