Wiki

Ugh. I was concerned about this in the beginning, but I've had so much going on that I've never paid proper attention to it. Lame.

While you're messing with the wiki, any change we could have file uploads enabled? I just wrote a skeleton article about keystoning, and had some images that would help illustrate things.

Wouldn't it make sense to have this article directly within the Wiki with Images? Otherwise, we again have a lot of different information spread all over in different formats and places. I think the effort should be to make the Wiki the one place to get prepared information - to the degree that it has been discussed and agreed on in the forum.

Right. I want the images displayed on the wiki page, but as far as I can tell, the image has to be first uploaded to the wiki and then inserted into the article with [[File:filename|options|caption]].

Ah ok. We definately need pictures in the Wiki. Everything else would be doomed to fail.

Your wish is my command, problem is that I'm a n00b genie. Working on this now.

I just want to throw in another possibility: if administering isn't exactly one of your favorite hobbies, there are various free and hosted wiki solutions available that can simply be used. At least that could solve the spam problem to some degree and you won't have to keep the web scripts up-to-date regarding the latest security leaks.

That's true, but although it may come back to bite me, I really prefer to keep all software hosted locally.

The wiki now has a "logo", recaptcha, and file uploads enabled(can someone else test file uploads please?)

(can someone else test file uploads please?)

Yep, looks like everything works. Thanks.
