Using wikibooks.org sounds attractive, but I don't see any protection
against spamming.  And that is exactly what happens to the Vim tips.
It's just a matter of time before this happens on wikibooks.org too.

I agree that spam protection should be our top priority.

Why ? We already have the spam problem and while annoying it doesn't negate the value of the tips themselves. Sure it's important, but the quality and quantity of content should be top priority shouldn't it?

That aside - if wikibooks doesn't seem to have the spam problem now I don't think it's appropriate to dismiss them just because we don't _think_ it will work. Proof is in the pudding - wikipedia and wikibooks seem to prove it _does_ work.
