IDEA: complete 240SX modification guide WIKI

[Sean1978]

for people who aren't familliar, this is what a WIKI is (from wikipedia):
A wiki (IPA: [ˈwiː.kiː] <wee-kee> or [ˈwɪ.kiː] <wick-ey>[1]) is a type of website that allows anyone visiting the site to add, remove, or otherwise edit all content, quickly and easily, often without the need for registration. This ease of interaction and operation makes a wiki an effective tool for collaborative writing.


and here's an example: the nissan 240SX wikipedia entry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/240SX

Anyway, my Idea was to make a complete 240SX modification guide WIKI book, I think this would be an easy way to make a very complete "Idiot's Guide" to modifying S-Chassis vehicles.

anyone have any input on my idea?

I think you have a good idea, and if it succeeds you could make it into a "any car" wikipedia. You would have to find some dedicated people with some real know-how to post on it as much as possible, and not just have a bunch of articles about nothing on there. From what I've seen of the Wikipedia before though, it's an excellent database of information and to be able to reference articles on it from forums like these would be invaluable.

the thing about a WIKI is when you post incomplete information, when someone else comes along they add what they know into it. The "collective" intellegence usually ends up making a very complete picture after more and more people contribute. I think wikibooks is the place to start the book. I'll have a look and try to set something up. I think people contributing a wealth of information to something like this would make questions 100X easier then searching forums..

here's wikibooks:

here's the blank book, now's it just up to the community to populate it with information...

Funny how you put "turbocharging" under NA mods.
