Wiki Discussion

When wiki starts to grow up, how it's gone be against mainsite?
Mainsite has a Hardware section, does not have many articles yet, but does it make sence to have duplicated information?
What kind of information should we have in mainsite and Wiki?
We now have the firsts articles about hardware, i will create some more about 1200/600 projects, so it will start to grow, so, should we have the same articles? Do we finnish the hardware section in main site? Or we just stay with the major hardware info in main site?

There won't be any duplicate information on the mainsite. My idea now is to utilise the main site's directory structure and concentrate on the 4 directories we now have in place on there (hardware directory coming soon). The hardware directory is going to be a database just like the other sections, holding details about all hardware released for the Amiga. In contrast the hardware section on the Wiki will contain the details about each Amiga model released, plus pages examining specifics of hardware such as how to install an HD, accelerators etc...

The current hardware holding page on the main site will be altered to contain directed links to the various related sections on the Wiki once the Wiki pages are complete.

The basic idea is that the main site and Wiki will compliment each other. The Wiki will contain factual information and detailed articles about the Amiga, and the main site will contain the extensive directories about everything released for the Amiga. This will hopefully simplify the content being covered on the two parts of classicamiga.

Obviously the main site will also still be used to post news items.

I also think that articles about the demo scene would be better on the Wiki, with a link to them from the main site's demo scene directory section.

Harrison is there any banner of Wiki that i can put in my website?
Or do you prefer to wait a few more time till we get more information on it?

I allready have the A1200 project in wiki created, i think i will put even more info in it.
as soon as you can, create please the "CD-ROM to RCAs" i have the text prepared, and some images to put there, and will have a [[]] from the a1200t project.

There isn't a banner for the Wiki yet. I will create one when I get time.

And yes, you can link to the wiki. I'm just now formally announcing the Wiki yet on the main site until we have some more content finished.

I will also start those other pages for you tonight.

I don't see any activity in Wiki.... i post some projects/articles some time ago, but now it doesn't have any new stuff for a long time.
I am sure you all have projects to put here, come on, take some pictures, write some articles, lets improve it.

I've not had much spare time to work on the Wiki content myself. Hopefully I will get more time very soon. And I still hope more people will take part.

I'd kind of forgotton about the Wiki

I'll try to take part as well in the near future. Currently I'm a bit busy working on some Amiga demo related projects, but once these are finished, I'll try to contribute.
