I remember a while back we were talking about making a wiki? Any news on that? I think it would be very useful for beginners and it would stop a lot of questions getting repeated over and over again. For things like the Movie Method and RTK lite etc, it would be a lot easier to get information about it on a wiki, rather than having to search through forums.

As a newbie to this site, and most of the methods being discussed here, I think a wiki could have great potential. People often use abbreviations on the forums, such as KO2001 or i + 1, which make searching for topics on the forums less than ideal.
It's thanks to my lurking around that I found out about KO2001/Anki. Originally I just saw "KO2001" and "Anki" and completely dismissed it, then happen to see a post talking about the KO2001 spreadsheets for easy importing into Anki.
I was also literally on the verge of quitting RtK (I'm using a custom Japanese/English hybrid RtK in Anki), and might have never heard about KO2001, if it weren't for a little "luck" in finding threads that happen to be on the top at the time.

I didn't forget about it and I'm glad to see there's still interest in the idea.
However I'm very sorry but we're on a project with Kafka-esque management at work, which saps all my energy. So I just didn't find the energy and motivation to do anything for all of August. That and also having no Yoga class or other ways to cool down during August didn't help. I'm just waiting for our project to miserably fail at the impossible deadline for next week, and then pray for some serious reshuffling here of our team.. that's the stupidest project I've ever been on. On the plus side, I think I mentioned this before, I'm learning tons about the YUI framework.
So yeah I can't promise anything right now, but I think it would be much nicer for a wiki to be hosted on the koohii server, definitely. That wikia site has more ads than content X_X
I just don't want to promise anything cause even if it takes an evening to install a wiki and upload it I have no idea when I could do it.
On the other hand I suppose you'll be able to move the content to the RevTK-hosted wiki later if you want, and you can use this opportunity now with Wikia to have an outline of the wiki's structure: main topics, organisation of the homepage etc.
I think it's a great idea.
PPS: I'll sticky this topic for now and so I won't forget about it
I suggest to use it to continue sharing ideas about organizing the Wiki (currently the one at Wikia).
