Wikibon is designed to implement our concept of an open, wiki-based source of peer-review information on best practices in business systems and IT.  There is one important space is the [[storage]] best practice wiki.  This is the Wikibon wiki prototype. We're inviting a limited number of storage experts to add content to a core stencil created by Dave Vellante and David Floyer. Any content added to this space will be regarded as free open source content.  The intention is to learn from creating this wiki, and to expand to other IT and business practice areas.

== Differences from Wikipedia ==

{| border="1" cellspacing="3"
-
Wikibon is similar to Wikipedia in terms of its rules, openness, committment to peer review and system of governance. It differs in content, however. Wikipedia is fact-based and has a strict no original research policy [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_original_research]. Wikibon, on the other hand, encourages independent thoughts, opinions and experiences with the explicit intent of helping people get good work done.

Wikibon's [[contribution policy]] stresses independent thought and experential "how to" advice.

This wiki serves two purposes: (1) to demonstrate our concept of an open, wiki-based source of peer-review information on business system and IT best practices, and (2) to solicit external feedback on NuCo's strategies and tactics.

Currently, we have two "spaces" in this wiki. The first, and most important, is the [[storage]] best practice wiki. This is the Wikibon wiki prototype. We're inviting a limited number of storage experts to add content to a core stencil created by Dave Vellante and David Floyer. Any content added to this space will be regarded as free open source content.
