### Creating a New Wiki <a href="#creating-a-new-wiki" id="creating-a-new-wiki"></a>

You can create a blank wiki or use an out-of-the-box template to start. Each wiki **MUST** be created in a group.

To create a new wiki:

Click the **New Wiki** button in the Wikis page to open the **New Wiki** pop-up. Alternatively, in a team's page, click the **More** drop-down list in the News Feed tab and then click the **New Wiki** option. Another way to get started is to also click the **New Wiki** button in a team's page in the **Wikis** tab to open the **New Wiki** pop-up.

Provide a title for the wiki, select the team for which you want to create, select the preferred template, and edit the content of the wiki in the Wiki Editor.

Click the **Save And Publish** button to save the changes to the content and publish the Wiki in the selected team.&#x20;

All members of the team will be notified when a new Wiki is published within their team.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Wiki titles in MangoApps are case-insensitive. For example, if you created a wiki as 'Assistants Logs', you cannot create another wiki as 'assistants Logs', or 'Assistants logs', since all 3 are treated the same.

Wikis are intended to be collaborative. Team members can edit the wiki created and published by you. MangoApps Wikis employ **page-locking**, so that only one person may edit a page at a time. If more than one person attempts to edit a page that is already being edited, they receive an alert message similar to:

When locks are broken, there is a potential risk to the previous lock owner of losing their recent changes. Breaking locks is **not** recommended.
