Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is my pleasure to introduce our new Wiki, which should serve as a repository for collective wisdom of the forum crowds.
The wiki is hosted at:
http://wikihost.org/wikis/academic_career/What you will see is a skeleton page - basically a listing of topics that I and other contributors proposed. You can add and edit pages at will, anonymously.
I created this wiki, but, my friends, I cannot write it for you. It is YOUR participation that will make it a great resource for people - or another empty shell of a website littering the dusty byways of the Internet.
So, when you have a bit of free time or need something to break your writer's block, grab a thread from the forum that fits one of the FAQ categories and edit it into an article. You can create sub-categories for the categories, and add as many pages as you want.
I would like for a few people to volunteer as section editors.
Your role would be to oversee writing of a section and prevent people from stomping on each other's feet. You can exercise as much or as little editorial control as you want - but there is a happy middle to be found.
I would like to constrain my own role to that of a structural editor - working on overall organization of the FAQ, making things easy to find, and hypertexting related articles and terms.
Now, this is a collaborative and PUBLIC project. So, friends, let us be civil and collegial. Section editors and I will remove any bickering, offtopic discussions or (G-d forbid) personal insults.
