I've done a fair bit of wiki work over the last couple of years, using both
Wikimedia & Wikidot wikis.

e.g. http://www.lgam.info

Building up a wiki from scratch is a big job, and I think it would be a good
idea to do a bit of research into existing science fiction related wikis to
see if there are any existing ones that might be worth contributing to.

I did a quick search and found the following, but I am sure there are 100's
of others out there.

http://www.galaxiki.org/wiki/
http://scifi.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

Apart from the wikis that I have created personally, I think the most
interesting future related one that I have stumbled across so far is the
accelerating future wiki.

Wayne Eddy
