The first (rather basic) version of the user-editable wiki is now online, at:

Currently, I am requiring requests for edit permission, so as to avoid spamming. Moderators should have edit access already. There aren't really any articles, and it's a bit of a mess.

If you want to start writing articles (this includes moderators (smiley) ) then feel free. I won't personally delete them, but beware of the fact that there is no revision history yet. I'm adding it tomorrow, so it won't be a worry for long. Basically, make sure that you keep a copy of your text on your computer, in case someone does something stupid. (smiley)

If you have suggestions, please post them here (smiley)

In the pipeline:
- Revision history.
- Moving/renaming pages.
- Namespacing for categories, user areas for messing about risk-free.
- More BBCode
- Statistics pages to see how a page is visited/linked with others/etc.
- New gallery section for uploading images for use in the wiki.
- Talk pages for discussion about a page, or more conveniently, a section in the forum for talking about changes to wiki pages.
- Log of recent wiki edits, for moderation purposes.
- Redirect pages for typo correction & grouping of topics.

Maverik (smiley) Wow, I haven't seen you on the site for a while. Have you been away, or have I been ignorant?

I've added a section to "Place Listings" for the time being. I hope it's good enough. I might work on some other things if you feel I did well enough on that one.

I actually didn't have any problems that I can think of. It was pretty easy. If I think of anything I'll add it on. Though, if you know of a good bbcode database, that would help. I found a small one 
It lets me test out the code and see what it looks like. I guess if there was a way to see what your doing looks like before actually saving it would help, but for the time being I can just use that.
