Discord Wiki Channel

||Jojo||
A lot of you know the basic channels called #faq, <#268811439588900865>, #links, .... One problem with those channels are, it can be only edited by the author. (I know some bots could manage it) My idea would be to get a new channel type (instead of text/voice) called wiki-channel (or another cool name). This works like a text-channel but requires an editor permission and has only a template to edit. Every editor can move images and change text in this channel with markdown like in embeds. Additional users who have permission to view this channel can see who was the last editor with timestamp. Audit Logs may allowe to (re-)store older versions of the template. This feature would allow us to manage some channels easier, write nice class guides, tutorials etc inside of Discord.

    Cool idea, been wanting to do the same, sth that not only the author can edit. We could call this new wiki-like type of channel kiwi :-)

    I'm assuming this is still a non-existing feature?

    I can see this is dead, but commenting to bump it. This would make games over discord much easier as with it handouts could be put directly into discord.

    I ended up here looking for exactly this feature.

    Any update?

    This seems like a feature that could generate revenue for Discord. Any group large enough to want a wiki would almost certainly pay for a boost to get it. I know I would for the game server I am a part of.

    Regardless of revenue potential for Discord, a wiki would be a great feature that would keep many users in the discord app rather than leaving to access that service at another location...

    The community wiki feature works great on Stack Exchange, and I'd like to have it on my Discord communities too.

    Just about to make my own suggestion about this. But not before searching to see if someone else had the same idea. And there it is.

    But yes, this could be a very useful feature. Such as for FaQ so approved roles can make edits, read, moderate it, etc.

    Very useful when making instructions about the server. As well as help by fixing grammar and typos for community stuff where everyone reads it.
