WHY?

If you would like to add information to Wikipedia, you really need to be an expert on the topic. What makes Wikiversity different, is that everyone can join, add information and ask questions.

Page 3: Slide share   wikiversity manual

Guilds / Learning Circles What’s more, Wikiversity is divided in ‘guilds ’ (or learning circles) where experts and everyone who wants to learn can form a team. They work together on a specific topic and learn from each other. (you may join more guilds of course) Ideally, a team really gets to know each other well, so that people get actually engaged. Learning Circles could be about ‘Making beautiful websites’’ or ‘Social Business’, or smaller components of the subject: e.g. ‘Start-up finance’.

When you want to tell some about RuralWeb’s partners, we must to customize the name to RuralWeb. So you must create a name for the page that is unique, like: Ruralweb/partners

2) When you write: [[Ruralweb/partners|partners]] you created a new page called Partners.
