Q. What is the Generations of GM Wiki?
A. The Generations of GM Wiki (GM Wiki) is GM’s global history via an interactive, online "digital scrapbook."
You are encouraged to contribute your personal stories, recollections, anecdotes, factual information, photos and videos to augment the official timeline and provide a uniquely personal history as told through the eyes of employees, retirees, associates and the generations of families who shaped or experienced GM’s history firsthand. Personal stories posted to the GM Wiki will not be edited in any way but will be screened to assure they follow the Rules of the Road.
The "history" portion of the GM Wiki will be a collaborative effort tapping into the knowledge of participants. An official timeline has been provided as a starting point. Contributors can expand on those initial milestones to reconstruct a more comprehensive history or post entirely new articles. Postings may be expanded or enhanced by other GM Wiki contributors. All contributions will be screened to assure they follow the Rules of the Road. Moderators and subject matter experts will referee disputes among different versions of the history.
