It is possible to place any kind of files on the Wiki server, which then can be downloaded through Wiki. These files can only be downloaded by logged-in users.

This method is used, for example, for software releases distribution.

Placement on server

The external media location is accessible via \\dertarchnas10.manz.lc\ExternalMedia_Wiki within the MANZ network domain.

A directory exists for every public namespace. Users, who can create articles in a public namespace, have write rights in the respective directory.

Providing download link

A download link can be provided using the template {{External-Media}}. The usage is described on the template page itself.
