Just started a Wiki everyone is welcome to add, I'm going open season style on this. just to see how much interest i get.

 

Its open for all to add and edit you simply need an account with wikispaces. there is just a few test entries on there at the moment but lets get some ppl over there and see what we can make.

 

All input is welcome

Good idea for a wiki thing but better to contribute to the tree id database that Steve is starting on this very website?!

Well I've seen this thread but I don't see any database? I thought id set up a wiki to see how much 'trouble' I'd get in :-) with regard to auditing info. This would be a massive challenge granted. But I've found this is how I learn best, by using and manipulating data and creating a single place to keep it all, however accurate.

 

This then in turn encourages those embarrassing "I can't believe that's how you thought it was spelled" moments which is where we really learn. By associating knowledge with painful memory ha!

 

In all seriousness tho getting together on a wiki is a pretty neat idea, maybe backed up by a threadbon here or using the discussion boards built into my wiki page.

 

I'm hoping it won't be but I think the real challenge will be getting people to contribute. The the next biggest problem preventing spam.

 

Arb talk is the best Arb forum I've found it's got a super awesome mix of peeps. Which is perfect source to tap into for the wiki.
