General FAQs
What is WikiVet?
WikiVet is a collaborative initiative involving UK veterinary schools. The project is creating a comprehensive online knowledge base which covers the entire veterinary curriculum. This will provide a reliable reference source to supersede Wikipedia for veterinary students, nurses and graduates anywhere in the world.
Who is WikiVet intended for?
Our primary user base we feel is students of the veterinary sciences as we are actively trying to cover all aspects of the veterinary curriculum in our content. As the site grows we hope that professionals will also use the site to gain quick access to veterinary information.
Who is responsible for the content on WikiVet?

Who owns the content of WikiVet?

Who governs activity in WikiVet?
Initially, WikiVet Project staff and a few volunteers will oversee activity on the site. Over time, as the community of Editors grows, a hierarchy of volunteer administrators will take over the day-to-day governance and policy setting of the WikiVet community.
