Hello,

I quite new to drupal, but immediately felt in love with its node system and modularity. Currently, I'm planning a new community site using drupal 6 (very simple features: news page, forums and download center), and was wondering how to implement wiki functionnality. Site is about a collaborative coding project, and the wiki is aimed to allow programmers to learn/share their knowledge about all the different parts of that project. (That's why wiki-like hyperlinking looks interesting). I search myself through this forum and found a lot of debates about a drupal-wiki in 5.x, but what about the new 6 version ? What is the best option for an unexperience coder like me: install a complete working wiki-engine (like mediawiki) aside drupal having only a primary link joining both, or try to turn drupal itself into a wiki, using doubles-nodes (one for content, one for discussion) as articles, and somehow setting permissions so annyone can edit the node ?

Thank you very much for your time,

qwerkus

I just tried the profile http://drupal.org/project/drupal_wiki and installed it as a multisite with shared database and now have wiki.domain as a subsite of domain. the mediawiki input format didn't appear by itself.. contact me if you want to get the address for testing.

this looks interesting as well, but I haven't tested it yet: http://drupal.org/node/203502
