As an author, you can change the way readers can collaborate with you on your knols by choosing between three different collaboration models.
Q: Once someone edits my knol, they show up in a Contributors List. What if I don't want that?
A: Yes, you can remove individual contributors using the Remove from list link below the contributor's name, or you can remove the list entirely, as described here.
Open Collaboration
This setting will allow anyone with a Knol account to modify your knol and these modifications will be immediately public. Choose this setting if you are willing to have your work modified by anyone, at any time.Moderated Collaboration
This setting will allow anyone with a Knol account to suggest modifications and corrections to your knol, but these modifications will not be visible publicly until you or another author have reviewed and accepted them. At that point the person who edited your knol will appear in the contributors list, and their modifications will become part of your knol. Choose this setting if you would like to accept suggestions from your readership, but you would like to review them before they are incorporated into your knol.Closed Collaboration
This setting will only allow co-authors to modify your knol and these modifications will be immediately public. Choose this setting if you only want the group of co-authors you selected to be able to modify your knol.Searching by Collaboration Mode
You can search for knols by their collaboration mode, using the Search Toolkit.
FAQs on Collaboration Modes
Q: Can I use open or moderated collaboration on my bio page?
A: No. Author bio pages contain profiles which come from Google Profiles , which is a separate application from Knol, and does not support collaboration modes. You can use Google Profiles to share information about yourself, across all Google websites.
- See and modify your profile, or learn more.
Q: If someone's knol is in moderated collaboration mode, can I edit it multiple times?
A: Yes. The way that it works is that when you save a change to someone else's moderation collaboration knol, you have saved a draft version. You do not immediately affect the visible knol. If you press Edit again, you go back into a mode where you are editing your last draft.
The changes you made to a moderated collaboration knol become visible to the knol's authors as "suggestions". The author may step through the suggestions received and choose to accept or decli ne each suggestion. Once the suggestions have been processed by the owner, your "draft" version will disappear.
Q: Once someone edits my knol, they show up in a Contributors List. What if I don't want that?
A: Yes, you can remove individual contributors using the Remove from list link below the contributor's name, or you can remove the list entirely, as described here.

Alberto A: I am taking the liberty of editing your article.
A few weeks ago I began a new web page, but the problem was it always took a lot of time to do, until this month. I want to share the idea and experience of using knols.
The page has a section of columns: columnas para sostener la paz (columns to hold the peace). Visits to my web site were increased because an article on peace on my web page was linked to my web site using the "HTML" technique. Visitors could read the knol directly. I want to suggest that if you have a web page that includes articles you can have these linked using the "HTML" technique. This also promotes the knol as an instrument to share ideas and knowledge.
Allow me to share this page. If you want, please read the Proposals (Propuestas e Iniciativas). They are in Spanish. I expect to receive help in translating them to other languages. I think they are innovative and specific proposals. If you want, tell me freely what you think about these proposals.
There is also an Observatory of Conflicts between Peoples and Nations (Observatorio de Conflictos entre Pueblos y Naciones) and Peace's Artisans (Artesanos de la Paz) (Narayana Rao K.V.S.S.: the first is a Spanish man that has worked in India against poverty and hunger and for peace; he was Jesuit, as I also was at one time). The web page is: www.internetparapapa
There is a humble page but with all my efforts to share the peace in the World.

Sharing an experience with Knol in a new web.
I have found the utility of Knol, and want to share the idea and experience.
The page has a section of columns: Columnas para sostener la paz (Columns to hold the peace).
I have linked to my knols about the peace, that increased their visites after the opening of this web page.
I want to suggest that if you have a web page that includes articles, you can not copy them or write a new but link at a knol with the "including HTML" technique. The visitor will read the knol directly.
Like that, the visites to your knols will increase because there is a new link to them. Is also a promotion to Knol as instrument to share ideas an knowledge.
Allow me to share this page. If you want, please read the Proposals (Propuestas e Iniciativas). They are in Spanish, I expect to receive help to translate them in other languages. I think they are innovative and specific proposals.
If you want tell freely me what you think about these proposals.
There is also an Observatory of Conflicts between Peoples and Nations (Observatorio de Conflictos entre Pueblos y Naciones) and Peace’s Artisans (Artesanos de la Paz) (Narayana Rao K.V.S.S.: the first is an spanish man that have worked in India against poverty and hungry and for the peace; he was jesuit as I also was a time).
The web page is: www.internetparalapa
There is a humble page but with all my efforts to share the peace in the World.

Knols
Can I publish my knols with the option of :
disabled download and disabled copy ?
It means that I don't want the readers to be able to download or copy my knol.
If yes then tell me how.
Thanx & Bye !
