April 4 -The 7 Cups Wiki is Live! All the information you need to know!
Hi All -
I am thrilled to announce that the 7 Cups Wiki is LIVE! Please carefully review the information below to learn how it works!! Big thank you to @krinkthemellowunicorn & @ezrabc for their help building the wiki! They have created an incredible tool that I am so excited to share with you today!
Please review the original post annoucing this update here.
What is a wiki?
A wiki is a collaboration tool. You can think of it as a shared resouce to host our communities collective knowledge & shared wisdom! Our community has been using the forums and google docs to house this information for nearly 5 years. The wiki is here to help bring more organization, structure and access to all of our shared resources!
You can access the wiki here -
The wiki is organized using the following structure -
Category (parent topic)
Sub-Category (Topics within parent topic)
Articles (Specific articles related to the parent category & Subcategory)
Here is an image to explain the structure -
Each category and sub-category can house as many articles as needed.

For everyone..... GIVE YOUR FEEDBACK ...... As you explore the wiki, please share your feedback here! We will be carefully reviewing your feedback and making changes as needed.
It's public, except for some listener-only categories. There might also be therapist-only categories, but I wouldn't expect to be able to see them as a listener 
However, don't let the word wiki make you think it's a wiki. Unlike a real wiki, just because you can read an article doesn't mean you can edit it.

Citation needed, as they say Seriously, where's the definition of wiki that 7 Cups is using?
It's not that I have a preference for any particular definition. But people who don't know the word are going to assume our wiki is like other wikis they've encountered, or else they'll look the word up in a dictionary. Either way, they're likely to end up confused.
If we're using the word wiki in a special way that only applies at 7 Cups (and I think we are), then we should make it clear to everyone what we mean.
Features like editing in place and a simplified way to make links could have been implemented here in these forums with much less work. In fact, I'm writing this reply in place within the thread, not in a popup.

Yes! When there is more than one version, a clock appears. But there's no tooltip to tell you what it means
