MB World Wiki Thread

Earlier today I made the announcement that MB World now has a wiki. In case you missed the announcement, read it here

What I would like to see in this thread is two things:

1)Your feedback on who is the guru of this model section. What I would like to see is the usernames of the 1 -2 people you look to for technical information about this model of MB. We would like to recruit them to help us in populating the information in the wiki.

2)Requests for items you would like to see added to the wiki.

You hit all the right names. Also checked out the Wiki page and it will be an awesome resource when completed.

Has this gone by the wayside? Do you need volunteers to find and publish info?

The best way to do this is to add a check box or vote box where posts can be recommended to be added to the Wiki. We, the community can just click on noteworthy posts, and an administrator can then accept the suggestion and approve it as "Part of the Wiki". I don't know the coding (programming) behind these forum pages, but that is the quick and simple way. Craigslist has a button for prohibited or "Best of Craigslist". I'm suggesting using the same concept.

You will notice that all of our posts contain an "!" exclamation mark to report them as inappropriate. Same thing but for Wiki.

Another way -- without new coding -- is remove all the stars from all the posts and only mark "5 Stars" those posts we want to part of the Wiki. The only bad about this method is that anyone can make any post "5 Stars".
