How To Wiki

MEDS wiki is open and visible for anyone. You don't need a user account to look up content. However, everybody is able to create an account, add and edit content.

All heads of departments are invited to sign up and contribute to the wiki. Additional helpers and editors are very welcome too.

MEDS wiki is based on MediaWiki, the same platform behind Wikipedia and many other similar pages.
