It'd be a nice place for me to dump all the strange tidbits found when wandering the web, and hopefully learn things I've been wondering about. |

Setting up MediaWiki (The software Wikipedia runs off of) would be extreamly simple. But the problem is keeping it creditable and crud free. |

Not to mention, with a way of keeping vandals away. Wikipedia has a ton of those around certain articles...
I was browsing one article and the entire thing was replaced by "Blah blah this character is a fag" etc, etc. Luckily someone fixed that soonish. |

Yeah, but isn' t that mainly with the wikis that are very popular? And like you said, things can be reverted back to previous edits. |

That also means that anyone can go back and delete your additions for no reason at all. |

Then we can RESTORE THEM SINCE WE'RE JUST AS ANALLY RETENTIVE AS ANY ASSCLOWN OUT THERE WHO WANT'S TO FUCK WITH OUR WIKI RIGHT?
besides, can't you lock out "anonymous" edits? |

Jeez, calm down. I didn't mean to make you angry or anything.
Yes, it is a good idea. Is the software CPU intensive? If you're going to start something like this, you'll need a good host and lots of bandwidth. |

I apologize for my anger; it should've been more properly directed at Boktai 2's puzzles.[/list] |

Yes, my web site, http://www.red-stars.net , uses mediawiki and blocks out anonymous edits. |
