Frequently Asked Questions
General
- Who, What and Why is WikiPathways?
- Do you check the content of contributed pathways to ensure that they are correct?
- No, WikiPathways does not review pathway content, except to look for vandalism and obvious problems.
- Where do all the pathways come from?
- At the start of WikiPathways, the pathway content mirrored that of GenMAPP.org, which was originally contributed by the GenMAPP user community.
- How is WikiPathways different from KEGG, Reactome, BioCarta, Pathway Commons and other online pathway resources?
- In addition to viewing and distributing pathways, WikiPathways content is also fully editable directly on the website. This is possible since WikiPathways is based on a wiki platform, similar to Wikipedia.
Using WikiPathways
- I created a pathway and made a mistake in it, how can I correct it?
- You can revert the changes to your pathways under the History section of the Pathway page.
- I want to delete a pathway, but there is no option for deleting.
- Deleting a pathway is only possible with an Administrator account, contact the Help Desk for help.
- How can I download all pathways at WikiPathways?
- Batch download of pathways in gpml and svg format is available here: Batch Download
- I want to use one of the pathways in GenMAPP, but since I am not on a PC, the download MAPP option doesn't work. How can I get a pathway in GenMAPP format?
- On the Pathway Page, click the Edit pathway link. When the pathway opens in PathVisio, go to File>Export to save the pathway in .mapp format.
