Introduction
Atlassian Confluence is an "enterprise" wiki.
Notice: I created this page because I need to know how the [LAMS wiki works] in order to help with software localization. At some point, contents may be made more generic - Daniel K. Schneider 10:43, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Confluence is organised in spaces (i.e. some kind of sub-wikis) Each space contains a hierarchically organised set of pages. Links between pages are possible

Dashboard > Space > Page > Subpage > ...
Top right: Various user actions like user settings and search Top right: Add page and Add Blog Post
Footer: List of subpages ("children")
