As detailed above this site has established and tailored according the needs of the UIF community. It was initially established in 2013, and had gone through a major revamp and restructuring in 2020. Historically, the Wiki has been used by fellows to create their profiles, resources such as "How to", organisations etc. but post 2020 revamp training of to-be fellows will also take place on the wiki. However, this is not applicable to cohorts or prior. For site maintenance, several structures are in place to keep the pages in tact, and to streamline the work being on done this. This is primarily organised through two standards, namely "Namespaces" and "Categories" - these are further explained the sections fellow.
===Namespaces===
A namespace is a set of wiki pages whose names begin with a particular reserved word recognized by the MediaWiki software (followed by a colon), and it is also the first level of classifying pages on the wiki. For example, in the fellow namespace all titles begin with the prefix <code>Fellow:</code>. Only pages related to "Main page" or related/similar pages such as cohorts are in the main-space, which do not have any prefix. Only admins (UIF team) can create pages in this namespace. Though MediaWiki software comes with several default namespaces, not all of them are used on this Wiki. The namespaces active and relevant for fellows on this Wiki are:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
