wiki

The how-to forum is a good resource, but it's starting to scroll past quite quickly. Is anyone able to host a wiki so we can put up some of the advices in a more permanent manner? The community maintained wiki for dwarf fortress is an excellent resource for that game and the dev didn't have to lift a finger.

I think it's a good idea, personally, but the other thing is that if you recall, Toady isn't hosting the DF wiki, either.

Yeah, I didn't say that explicitly and should have... This is a request to someone in the community with connections to host a wiki and let me know where it is so I can fill it with content

In another thread one of the devs said he didn't want a wiki. He doesn't want a big open book game. But one that you need to explore.

Though I applaud and agree with the sentiment, it is almost laughable in the modern world...anyone anywhere can post every single detail about a game without the need of 'official' sanction. If a wiki or fansite or whatever is what you want/need to enjoy the game, then go for it.
