Building a Company Intranet Using SharePoint's Wiki Pages
For team collaboration in a business setting, Wiki Pages in SharePoint are a go-to solution. Creating one is as simple as going to the "Site Pages" section within "Site Contents," selecting "New," and then opting for "Wiki Page." Customize the page with rich features like headings, lists, links, and even data tables.
