Frankly, I *do* think wikipedia is an appropriate media to document EV pioneers. - it's a widely recognized reference, - its pages frequently show high in search results, - it's considered generally trustworthy and cited by many. I think we would be doing a disservice to those wanting to know

The problem with Wikipedia is they don't want to be a primary source. They want a reference from another source for everything that is stated. I've seen many pages with comments that the information seems to be primary or needs a cited reference. Now, if they flag that, but don't do anything

I'm willing to set up a wiki at evdl.org. Like the EVDL, it would be 100% non-commmercial, meaning no ads and no commercial promotion. Before I do that, could we please have a few people commit to writing and/or editing? Keep in mind that it requires some time. You can contact me offlist

My thoughts: start small. Limit it to just the time span of the EVDL. Get the wiki working, decide on the format and sections of each page, what aspects of content to include. Once that time span is completed, start growing. Peri -- Original Message -- From: "Willie2 via EV"
