Yandex Wiki structure

Page tree

Wiki pages are organized as a tree:

1. wiki.yandex.com: Wiki home page. The home page usually features links to the main clusters, important resources, or news.

2. wiki.yandex.com/page: Top-level pages. These are usually pages related to a general topic. For example, this could be the pages of a department, team, or project.

   Note

   The home page isn't a parent page for top-level pages.

3. wiki.yandex.com/page/subpage/... : Second-level pages and below.

Each page has one or more authors. These are the users who manage access to the page. You'll find page authors under the page title.

Wiki home page

The Wiki home page is the primary entry point of your knowledge base. It serves as the root page for all other pages. You can edit it just like any other page.

Clusters

Wiki pages form clusters:

A cluster is a page with all its subpages. Pages within a cluster usually share a subject.

To view or change the cluster structure, click in the top panel.

Personal cluster

Each Wiki user has a Personal cluster (wiki.yandex.com/users/<username>). You can use your personal cluster to store your personal information, schedule, drafts, and more.

To go to your personal cluster, click My page in the left Wiki panel.

By default, the pages in your personal cluster can be accessed by all users.

As with other pages for which you are the author, you can change the access settings for the pages of your personal cluster.

Relative page addresses

To link to another Wiki page, you can use a relative address instead of the full page URL:

• Specify the address relative to the Wiki home page: wiki.yandex.com. To do this, add / before the address:

  Destination	Markup
  wiki.yandex.com/users/John/page	[John's notes](/users/John/page)

• Specify the address relative to the page where you are placing the link.

  Page URLs	Markup
  Links from: wiki.yandex.com/users/John/newpage Links to: wiki.yandex.com/users/John/page	[John's notes](../page)
