MMORPG.com Wiki?

ByphByph Member UncommonPosts: 2

I've had an idea floating around in my head about working on a wiki project that focuses not on one particular MMORPG but MMORPG game design in general.  As a veteran of multiple MMOs, and betas I often see the same mistakes repeated.  The goal of the project would be to provide a resource in wiki format for fans and game developers alike that defines terms, captures ideas, and chronicles features that worked, didn't work, and might work (untried).  It'd be a jump start for any developer, and a place for fans to capture their expectations.

This site is an obvious place to host it, but I don't know a) are there interested contributors, and b) are the administrators of this site willing to support it?

Thoughts?

     There are sites that will let you set up a wiki for free.

    Can't hurt to try it out.

    Wikis are largely volunteer efforts. How much time do you intend to volunteer to format, create, edit, moderate, establish advertising to pay for it, banning the malignant element, fumigating after they run through, settling disputes between earnest editors, crawling the site to maintain consistency, etc. in order to make this happen?  How many hours per week over how many months? Or is this like the member made free mmorpg list in The Pub where a member comes along every 6 months or so and says it needs to be updated but only as long as someone else does it?
