[Fiware] Conflicts editing the Wiki in parallel ...

[Juanjo Hierro]

  Thanks Torten.

  Regarding point 3, we have to take into account that you have to navigate through all the Wiki pages you want to gather in the .pdf book you generate from the Wiki (this is something we have to deal with to comply with the rule of submitting document deliverables).   This is the way the MediaWiki extension for producing books works.    If we had gone for generating a wiki page per every Generic Enabler, it had became a rather nightmare to generate the .pdf book deliverable.   The compromise is to have Wiki sections per GE, editable on its own.

  Best regards,

Hi all,

I don’t think that the „never use the edit tab” is sufficient to avoid concurrency problems.
Some additional hints:

1.       Most important: Save often! Everything you saved is stored in the wiki and can be recovered.

2.       Use section edit as Juanjo said.

3.       Don’t create long wiki pages. For the Product Vision it would be better to have a wiki page for every Generic Enabler. This also has the advantage that you could link to it from various other places. If one really want to have everything in one page, you could achieve this by page transclusion.

Just my two cents, because I also suffered from a concurrency problem recently.

Hi,

  Some of you are reporting editing problems on the Wiki because of concurrent access.

  Please bear in mind you all are trying to change different sections.   Therefore, NEVER use the "edit" tab on the top of the page but the edit link at the right hand side of your concrete section.

  Cheers,

-- Juanjo
