This is the Telecommunications Inventory Wiki. It is primarily for the Connections Museum inventory. Some information will only be editable by museum volunteers (like items in museum inventories) while other information (like general pages about item models) will be editable more widely.
Before creating new pages, please familiarize yourself with the wiki's namespaces.
Pages support data (under the "Edit data" tab) added in pre-set schemas to populate introductory paragraphs (because the introductory paragraph for certain things like different models of phone will all be very similar).
