Hi Abd, welcome to the list. It appears that you are reading my comments out of context, and are also misunderstand the intent of a wiki -- it is a *collaborative* site. See these links: "Why Wiki Works": http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WhyWikiWorks Wiki page on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki So ... have you read the entire web page? What in particular do you find confusing? On every electowiki page there is a tab near the top entitled "discussion". If you click there, you can add comments or questions. I encourage you to do so, after creating a login account, of course. Finally, note that comments are most welcome when they are well considered and constructive.
