Open+or+closed?

​Reasons to have an ** OPEN **wiki:


 * You do not need to sign in to be able to use the wiki. Access the site from anywhere without logging in.
 * No hassle of forgetting your username and or password.

Reasons to have a ** CLOSED **wiki:
 * I think it should be closed for security reasons. As long as passwords and usernames are either the same as our school access codes or something very easy to remember. I don't think I'll be able to remember another username and password. It's gettin' crowded up there, ya know.
 * Everyone must sign in with a username and password to access the wiki (whether it’s just to look or to add content)
 * Sometimes the above might be a deterrent from visiting a website
 * The good news is that once you've logged into one computer with your wiki username, it will remember it until you log out (whenever visit private wikis, I never have to log in because I always access it from the same computer)
 * In the “History” tab, you can track who has made changes on an individual page.
 * If someone posted a file that you have a question about, you will know who to email.
 * If you make a mistake, you can restore a previous saved version of that page. This can only be done with a closed wiki!
 * If it's closed, the link could probably be added to the intranet page.
 * I (we) are aware who has access to the site. Every username has to be physically approved.
 * We can post content (i.e. Discovery Streaming Content) that we all have access to because of a district membership. If the wiki is public, it would be a copyright violation, since people could access information that only should be accessed by paid subscribers.
