Will has done a great job to get this started, but I'm thinking this could be a more permanent feature.
In the long I'd like to see a feature where new links/threads/articles can be proposed to add to the "All there is to know" section.
I believe it would need some kind of moderation though.
There could be something a simple as a form like
Proposed Link Title:
Proposed Link URL:
Short Description of Item:
Short Motivation for proposing Item:
Keywords:
Have the form simply emailed to the moderators, they do a bit of quality control, and if accepted it gets entered into the system.
If not the Wiki itself, the whole thing should be at least entered into a database table, to make it searchable. Automate the whole entry and display of Items.
I'm working half-time at the mom. I'd be willing to program the whole thing in php/mysql...
Would only take a day or so I'd guess...
Link entry form for the website. form mails to email of the topic related moderator/quality controller (Categorize into what used to be the different threads)
Front-end output consisting of an alphabetic Item Index & a search function, consisting of say a searchfield and a category select field...
'Related Link' lists are nothing new in CMS land...
At the bottom of the page of any thread, this forum already has a version of this function actually...
Just thinking out loud....
