For more information and other options for your content, please visit the Wiki Service Change Options and FAQs page. Your content from https://wiki.uiowa.edu will be available for migration upon request for two years (until 1/8/2026).

Using the Wiki

Space shortcuts

Child pages
  • Why can't I see a page?

The wiki has two levels of permissions for wiki spaces:

  • Space level
  • Page level

If you can navigate to a wiki space, you have permission to view that space.  If you can edit a lot of the pages, you probably have editing rights as well.

If you know there is another page, but you cannot see it, it probably has a viewing restriction (page level).  A page can be set to be viewed by only a handful of individuals, so only they can see it.  This  page and any child page underneath it, will be invisible to anyone not on the viewing list -- think of this as a member's only club.

If you believe you should see a page but cannot, ask the space administrator to add you to the page restrictions (under Tools > Restrictions).
