Wikieducator rich text editor tutorials/Communication and interaction/Summary

What really makes the Wiki a great tool for collaboration is its facility to enable communication between participants in the same environment that authoring is taking place. Pay attention to Talk pages while looking through the wiki and you may notice that often there are rich discussions taking place in these spaces. Use your watchlist as a way to keep track of projects and pages you are particularly interested in and turn on the email function in your user preferences to keep informed quickly of changes to pages you are watching.
