There are two major navigation methods in the wiki.  One is the college organization chart.  The other is the resources chart.  Each has a starting grid with links on the wiki landing page:

The College organization navigation tree simply follows the organization of the college and in most cases, that of wiki spaces.  The Resources links provide a faster track for visitors to reach things most relevant to them, faster.  The Divisions links go directly to spaces for each of the five divisions.  There, pages or links are arranged by office or departments.  

The Resources links each go to separate pages in a single space, where there are grids with links.  No other pages or content should be in that space if they properly belong to any administrative unit of the college.  Exceptions would be pages that provide documentation or instructions for resources that straddle administrative units of the college (and that are probably managed by ITS administrators.)  

Legacy Organization

The wiki was originally brought to Canisius for use in ITS and, until 2017, was even ignored by ITS outside User Services (and COLI.)  In around 2016-2017, in response to demand among several administrative units of the college for a simple CMS, the wiki was extended to the entire campus.  However, many spaces remain from it's original configuration from ITS, and are being phased out over time.  

In a few key areas, such as Human Resources, spaces may remain separate from their divisional spaces, because these offices require extensive trees of pages that for management purposes, merit their own space.
