How about a Wiki for saving knowledge?
« on: February 04, 2005, 11:16:47 AM »
I really like this forum.  The advice is superb, and the level of enthusiasm but most if all knowledge shown by it denizens is wonderful.

Is there any chance we could set a Wiki up to start distilling some of this knowledge "for future generations" ;-)  ?

It'd give people a chance to add their knowledge to the collective pool, and also allow everyone to edit/correct as they see fit.

Wiki can run under php, so the technology shouldn't be a huge problem, although I realise that any installation of such stuff is non-trivial.

What do people think?  What do the site admins think?

Cheers,
Nick.

Er, something exactly like that!  :-D

Just had a search, and it seems that Alx from these forums is responsible.  I'll try and get in contact, as I'd love to see that grow to something huuuuge :-)
