I'm not sure what your boss wanted you to do but I doubt it was publishing your travel and expenses rules where everyone can see. Nthep (talk) 17:25, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

If I can add, this is a clear example of what Wikipedia's not to be used for. As it says on that page: If you are interested in using the wiki technology for a collaborative effort on something else, even if it is just a single page, there are many free and commercial sites that provide wiki hosting. I'd suggest looking into seeing if you can find a site that will help you in that way. RickinBaltimore (talk) 17:28, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

We already have everything published in a clumsy format here: https://liberalarts.utexas.edu/rs/administrative/Faculty%20administrative.php The utilization of a wiki was requested for quick access of info.

That's understandable, but this isn't the site to do that on unfortunately. I'd use this page Comparison of wiki hosting services as a reference to see what wiki hosting service you might want to publish this on. RickinBaltimore (talk) 17:37, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

Is there anyway to retrieve my work? It was a pain to do, with all the hyperlinks.

Yes, add an email address to your account and I'll email the coded text to you. Nthep (talk) 17:44, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

@Nthep I have enabled email. Thank you. KatSanch (talk) 17:57, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
