All right, so it is now time to take the next big step in the process of creating a greenwiki. Now that we have mediawiki up and running on our Derryfield server, the next step is to find content that can be linked to the page. Right now I am trying to decide whether copying and pasting information onto greenwiki pages is the way to go, or if just having a link to the page with the original information on it is more practical. The pluses of linking pages to greenwiki include less overall work in front of a computer, having it be much easier to add content to pages because all you have to do as a reader is post a link on the page. It is also much more unique of a concept than doing something exactly like wikipedia, but I am not sure exactly how it will work with the engine that is allready running on our network. The pluses of having content directly on the page are that it is much more user friendly. Because of this the site may get more traffic because it is more authentic. Basically if we cut and past content, and site our sources at the bottom of the page it will look and feel exactly how the priginal wikipedia does.
