Evo Wiki (Read 663 times)

kkmfg Senior Member Ghost of the code Posts: 411 Gender:	Evo Wiki 02/09/07 at 07:22:32 It would be nice if the new user contributing site was or contained a WIKI so that we users could add tips, tricks, etc to the wiki and help to flesh things out that way. The wiki could even contain the user additions and such in their own pages. I think it would be cool anyhow...

#1: The hope is not to manage it much at all. But there will need to be a few people, probably Allan and Lynn and also a couple of trusted Evo users. The only need here is to keep people from posting dirty pictures of horses or flat out wrong information.

#2: The hope here is that the users will update out of date info. After all, the whole point of a wiki is to have the users update the information that they are knowledgeable about themselves. So a popular wiki should have a minimum of stale data.

I especially didn't connect "Wikipedia" to relation to an open forum on software code. Thanks to David and Google - I'm now less ignorant!

Sorry about that. I was not being serious. There are a lot of content management schemes floating around and, even though wiki is the top of the heap, the whole genre is rather obscure. But that's the idea. Collaboration is the goal, which puppetmaster is behind the scenes is secondary.
