If it's cool with you Krogenar, I will create a thread later and you and anyone else can certainly contribute. We welcome the help.
I'm very cool with it. Should we delete this thread, or merge it later? Whatever you think is fine with me.
The new Wiki will not be setup like the current one. Rather, as I understand it, it will be a sub-forum like we're used to (that uses bbcode) except the Keepers will be able to organize it better. It will have a little link at the top like we have now, and the Wiki will open up a separate page. From what I saw, that page will have a look of a forum but be much more organized. Sort of like KBD's Tips and Tricks or how the Old GH Wiki worked. The main reason is we want the community to help as much as they can and the Wiki code/setup obviously isn't working. If it worked, people would be editing the Wiki instead of just talking about wanting one. It's very daunting and no fun to work on in my opinion. From personal experience (I created the Clack Wiki article), it's very awkward and time consuming for me to work on a Wiki entry when I can bang out a bbcode thread easily. I can add in links and setup tables and references like I do in my review much more easily with bbcode. I give Daniel Beardsmore major props.
Maybe there's a way to make the wiki we have support BBcode? I don't want to make suggestions that are unwelcome, but, it's too bad that isn't possible. Then people could write up stuff in BBcode and it could then be dropped into the wiki by someone who does know how it works? Also, maintaining a 'hit list' (report of gaps in our knowledge) might make it easier for people to contribute. Maybe a thread for just that would work?
HIT LIST THREAD / PHOTOS NEEDED.- KMAC blahblahblah
- Dolch with monitor still attached.
- Exotic Korean 30% keyboard.
Then someone can just pop into the thread, see the list, and say, "Whoa, I've got that picture." and then post it. Keeper arrives, puts the photo where it belongs (along with a photo credit), and the thread can be scrubbed up, edited, whatever.
The new Wiki is currently a work in progress like Photekq said. Rkinize is the main driver/updater for that project. I will also post a thread later with the info on the new Wiki, as well as projects the Keepers are working on.
If I can help, just let me know.
