About the Playbook
The Outsoar PH Playbook is an internal knowledge base that documents company policies, workflows, best practices, and technical solutions used by Outsoar PH. Founded to enhance collaboration and knowledge-sharing within the organization, it currently contains a growing number of articles, which employees can contribute to and edit. The Playbook operates on MediaWiki, the same platform that powers Wikipedia, and is designed to be an ever-evolving resource maintained by Outsoar PH team members.
A Brief History
The Playbook was established to create a centralized, well-structured knowledge hub for Outsoar PH. Initially, knowledge sharing was scattered across different platforms, making it difficult to maintain consistency and accessibility. To solve this issue, the Playbook was introduced as a private company wiki, enabling employees to document and retrieve essential information efficiently.
Over time, the Playbook has evolved to include:
- Semantic MediaWiki features for structured data management.
- Access control mechanisms to manage permissions.
- A structured directory for organizing information.
Continuous improvements, including UI/UX enhancements and automation tools, have made it an indispensable resource for Outsoar PH employees.
A new milestone was reached with the introduction of a redesigned Main Page, incorporating TemplateStyles for a more polished and intuitive layout. Additionally, integrations with structured data and improved categorization have streamlined content navigation.
The Playbook continues to grow, thanks to the ongoing contributions of Outsoar PH employees. It remains a vital tool for maintaining institutional knowledge, fostering collaboration, and improving workflow efficiency across teams.
