Maintenance is the killer, and I will take this opportunity to whinge (to the list, not you!). Prior to the move of the Vim Tips from vim.org to vim.wikia.com, there was a lot of enthusiasm for the project; around 20 people were involved in the discussion. However, a much smaller number have provided useful assistance. While I'm grateful to get new tips, we actually need the old tips fixed. If anyone would like to help, please start here: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_Tips_Wiki:Todo My feeling is that a collection of patches would need quite a bit of maintenance.
