"The site contains three major strands of content: People patterns and anti-patterns, Adoption patterns and anti-patterns, and a walk-through of the stages of wiki adoption. The patterns and anti-patterns on the site are loosely modelled on the concept of software design patterns - those recurring, recognizable, and applicable patterns of behaviour that can be applied to a wide range of situations. For instance, the Magnet pattern recognizes that putting certain content exclusively on the wiki will help people get into the habit of using it regularly. For example, posting all your meeting agendas and minutes on the wiki establishes it as the place for the most up to date information."
