Hello, I am new here, but I've been reading through a number of posts and am finding out a lot of valuable information. But, It's not as well organized as it could be. The 'classic posts' is a very good section, but I wonder if having a wiki would be a better approach. You're probably all familiar with Wikipedia. Well, we don't have to allow just any anonymous person the ability to modify a wiki, you can make it so that only registered users can.
If the 'people in charge' here agree with me, but don't know how to set up a wiki, I may be able to help. I've set them up before. Computer systems operations is my career. I usually use Linux for servers. Of course as I am new, I would understand reticence to give me the 'keys to the kingdom' to do such installation, so maybe I could just offer advice or try to debug problems as they come up.
Once the wiki is functional, I'd be happy to start to convert some of the knowledge to wiki format. That doesn't require system privs or even much knowledge of computers. Adding knowledge to a wiki is fun. It makes me feel very productive when I add new things to the articles on wikipedia that I am the major contributor to. It's also nice to be able to find just the info you want on a wiki, and to have people who can go in and fix spelling errors or other mistakes that I might have missed, is so wonderful.
The first part of the Wiki I'd like to get done is that which regards preparing and installing the 80cc engine kit I just got from BikeBerry. Not that it's BikeBerry's fault, but that manual which comes with it is terrible. I am sure that, as a community, we can write a far better one.
What do you users think? What do you administrators think?
