i was thinking surely its easy enough to set one up and then let whoever fancies it add to it?
ive seen so many threads about definition of a planner / scheduler, can any one help me write a hand book etc people only need to add a little bit...
on the other hand though, never mind vandlalism, perhaps peoples different interpretations of the roles and responsibilities might cause more trouble than its worth... "a planner does this", "No, they dont, a planner does this"
Even, with PP from last so many years, the FACE HAS NOT CHANGED.
So, its not question about vandalism, but who has time to build-up a wiki?? If anybody is going to take initiative, then there will be lot of people to help out, but need a INITIATOR.
Im sure most people that come to this website are interested in planning, if there is vandalism i would think it will be minimal?
It wont be hard to ban users that abuse the wiki and i doubt anyone would be arsed taking up new usernames and coming back for a continuous and sustained attack...?
or need to be sponsored by everybody. As it will require lot of time and money (Small) off course.
Also, the problem with wiki will be it can be edited by each and everybody. Its like offering free spray cans next to the grey concrete wall, but still it will work better compared to any other forum than PP or website. Need to find a Volunteer (& Sponsor off Course) who can do this (who has ample amount of time for 3-4 months).

The wiki is excellent - well done to all the contributors to date. A hearty pat-on-the-back!

A great start

maybe You and Charlie..?
Vandalism can be tackled later on.
But, the thing is WHO HAS TIME TO DO ALL THINGS.
Even, with PP from last so many years, the FACE HAS NOT CHANGED.
So, its not question about vandalism, but who has time to build-up a wiki?? If anybody is going to take initiative, then there will be lot of people to help out, but need a INITIATOR.

For new implementations in the Forum, everybody should take part to his extent. Its not individual onus to do that either voluntarily.
As regards VANDALISM, I think Admin or Moderators are the best to control such things.
Yeah Ravi,
you are qt right.
Wiki!!!!!! Needs time man.....
or need to be sponsored by everybody. As it will require lot of time and money (Small) off course.
Also, the problem with wiki will be it can be edited by each and everybody. Its like offering free spray cans next to the grey concrete wall, but still it will work better compared to any other forum than PP or website.

What if there is ..........VANDALISM??
I do agree about this NEW idea.
YES!!!! Wiki is a GREAT idea
