Confluence

The BNC Wiki is hosted as a "space" in Confluence version 5.9.8 as of 5/17/2017. Access is currently restricted to those with building access, and by default pages are open for anyone with Wiki access to view or edit. Editing is largely straightforward and functions similar to Microsoft Word or other document editors.
