Wikipatterns: Adoption and Anti-Adoption
Andy Roberts, who facilitates the wiki on wiki facilitation, points me to Wikipatterns.
He describes it as:
This was quite an exciting discovery, a group of people trying to put together a pattern language about wiki adoption. My initial thoughts are slightly troubled by the idea that the patterns may be applicable in some contexts but not in others, in particular the difference between enterprise wikis and public ones. Can the two quite different endeavors be described within the same pattern language ? We shall see
There are patterns and anti-patterns and organized by individual behavior (people patterns) and group behavior (adoption patterns). Each one is given a description and technique. Here's some examples:
People Patterns
WikiFairy and Wikigardner
Anti-People Patterns
Over Organizer
Adoption
Lunch Menu
Anti Adoption
All Wiki All The Time
This resource, along with Andy Roberts work, are invaluable resources in planning a project that involves wiki adoption.
