Policy groups are a special type of group manager group.
- They are organized under an umbrella policy space
- Each new wiki is gets a policy group owned by a support group, which controls access to the wiki membership
- Only members of the policy group may edit the wiki space, which means that users will need to be added to the policy group
- A member of the support group needs to find the wiki's specific policy group in the duke-wiki policy space and click on it. The name of the policy group is in the space is the words 'Wiki for' followed by the first bit of the wiki's address, before
wiki.duke.edu- Then they will be able to add members to the group
- Nobody is automatically a member of a policy group, including the owners of that policy group
- Only IT staff are members of support groups and will have to update the membership at least once
- If the owner of the space wants, they can add a regular ad-hoc group-manager group to the membership of the policy group, and then whoever has rights to that can control the membership of the wiki space
- For example: If Danny is in the support group, he can add duke:group-manager:roles:duke-ucem-wiki-profiles to the policy group as a member, then Ed can control the membership of that group without having to bother Danny.
