Creation of a new TWiki web

TWiki pages (or topics) are grouped together in areas called webs. These a logical areas for projects, experiments or group entities.

For example Atlas topics go in the Atlas web and likewise CMS topics go in the CMS web.

To create a new TWiki page; "TWikiTopic", simply write a WikiWord in an existing topic or press the "Create New topic" button.

Your TWikitopics should go into the most relevant area. In general, one should avoid to create a new web if something exists, e.g. anything related to software or IT services could go the the IT web and so on. Here is a list of public webs.

However if you think that you really need a new web in order to store your TWiki topics then this can be done only by the TWiki Admin. Creating a new web area is best solution if the requirement is to create more than 10 pages and if they are to be dedeicated to a group defined by an egroup. This egroup can be used in access control lists for the web.

A request should be made with details of the purpose of the new web, the access control settings that should be set and the names of the web administrators.
