In the last few years, we've revived the idea of a student wiki at MFF CUNI, where the last attempt had languished for years. We'll talk about the technical side – choosing a platform, the problems we encountered, and our extensive modifications – as well as the organisational side, from getting institutional backing for our project to actually getting student contributions.

Through a combination of automated migrations and follow-up manual edits, we've consolidated a number of older, semi-abandoned platforms at the faculty to the new wiki. The entire software stack is FLOSS while also allowing integration with other university systems.

You can see the current state of the wiki at https://wiki.matfyz.cz, and our source code at https://gitlab.mff.cuni.cz/matfyzak/wiki/
