# Wiki

> **In short:**\
> The Wiki module provides a simple yet powerful way to organize knowledge at the Workplace level, offering a flexible structure with pages and subpages. It differs from the Documents module, which is designed for team-specific documentation. The Wiki’s organization-wide access makes it ideal for maintaining company-wide resources.

## Wikis in Timebook

The \[**Wiki**] module is designed for organizing and managing knowledge across the [Workplace](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/broken-reference) level. It shares many similarities with the [Documents](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents) module used within individual [Teams](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/broken-reference), but the key difference lies in the scope and application. While Documents are important to team members and their immediate work, Wiki is broader, encompassing the entire organization. This makes it ideal for creating and maintaining company-wide information, guidelines, or resources accessible to everyone.

In Timebook, you can create product-specific Wikis to organize resources tailored to individual Products, offering a more focused alternative to the Workplace-wide wiki.

This is how you access the Wiki module for your entire organization.

{% hint style="info" %}
The main difference between the \[**Wiki**] and \[**Documents**] modules is in their structure.

The Wiki module offers a simple and flexible format, organizing content as a list of pages and subpages. In contrast, the Documents module uses Documents and folders as containers, allowing for a more complex and organized structure.

This table compares the general characteristics of the \[**Wiki**] and \[**Documents**] modules in Timebook:

| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Scope**     | Organization-wide or product-oriented                 | Team-oriented                                                                |
| **Use case**  | Company policies, procedures, product knowledge bases | Project details, team-specific documentation                                 |
| **Access**    | Accessible to and meant for all Workplace members     | Focused on the members of a Team and with restricted access in private Teams |
| **Structure** | Pages and subpages                                    | Folders, Documents, pages, and subpages                                      |

## Features of the Wiki module

Your Workplace’s Wiki is composed of pages and subpages that store your content. The left pane in the \[**Wiki**] module displays all the pages in an organized list. You can expand or collapse subpages by clicking the arrows next to each page.

To reorganize your Wiki, simply drag a page to a new position in the list. This feature also allows you to promote a subpage to a main page or demote a main page to a subpage with ease.

Use the drag-and-drop features to manage the list of your Wiki pages.
{% endembed %}

You can save your favorite Wiki pages for easier access. Use the dedicated buttons in the top-right corner of a Wiki page to either:

* Bookmark a Wiki page to store it in the \[**Bookmarks**] module. This way, you can always find all your favorite Timebook objects in one central location.
* Pin a Wiki page to the Navigator. This way, you can quickly jump to the pinned object using the menu on the left, regardless of where you are in Timebook.

For more information on the features listed above, see [Broken link](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/broken-reference "mention")

{% hint style="info" %}
Timebook Wikis feature a dedicated comment section, allowing you to exchange feedback on entire Wiki pages or specific highlighted sections. You can create comment threads, reply to existing ones, and resolve comments when discussions are complete.

For more details on these features, see [comments](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/comments "mention")
{% endhint %}

### Creating a Wiki page

Creating Wiki pages in Timebook allows you to build and organize knowledge within your [Workplace](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/broken-reference). Each page serves as a building block for your Wiki, storing important information or resources accessible to all members. You can easily create new pages, structure them hierarchically with subpages, and customize them using various editing tools.

To create a new Page in your Wiki:

{% embed url="<https://go.screenpal.com/watch/cZ6ulancD7y>" %}
Use the left pane to create pages and subpages in the \[**Wiki**] module.
{% endembed %}

> 1. Go to the \[**Wiki**] module at the Workplace level.
> 2. Click the \[**+**] button at the top of the left pane.
> 3. Give your new Wiki page a meaningful name and click \[**Create**] to confirm.
> 4. Your new page is now visible at the end of the list. You can drag and drop it to a different place in the structure.

{% hint style="info" %}
Editing options in the Wiki are nearly identical to those available when editing regular pages in the \[**Documents**] module. For more information, see [pages](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/pages "mention") and [blocks](https://help.timebook.ai/hc/product-guide/documents/blocks "mention")
