Can I add someone external (guest) to a wiki?

Yes, first the external person (guest) must be registered here : http://guests.epfl.ch.

Important : an email containing a confirmation link is sent to the guest after registration. The link must be clicked before the account can be used.

Once done, follow this procedure :

  1. On the wiki administration page, click on the "Manage permissions (users and groups)" link
  2. Click on the "Add a user" link
  3. Enter the guest email address

Important : if the email is not recognized it means the guest account was not created or properly confirmed.
