The ZPI Wiki is a beta project at this time.
If you would like to create a wiki page at this time:
1. Click Add a Wiki Page
2. Create your page.
Wiki style linking is enabled. To link to another wiki page, you use [ [target|Title] ] (Without the spaces in the brackets, IE [[ )
For example, linking to the ZPI wiki page "Zombie" you would [ [Zombie|This is the Wiki page titled Zombie] ] Without the spaces in the brackets, that would look like This is the Wiki page titled Zombie
If you would like to link to a specific node ID, you can use the nid plugin. Links look like [ [nid:Node Number You'd Link to Link to|Title of your Link] ] Without the Spaces that would look like Title of your Link (That link links to node 707, which is the wiki page titled "Zombie"
To like to a specific path, like an entire forum, http://www.zombiepreparedness.org/forum/25 use [ [path:/forum/25|Post Your Plans Forum] ] which looks like Post Your Plans Forum
You can use BBCode, and filtered HTML (Admins may use PHP code)
Anyone can make a wiki page, Just click http://www.zombiepreparedness.org/node/add/wiki-page and get started!

um, is the wiki supposed to take the place of the articles? I don't understand what the Wiki will do for us...
WD, a wiki is a better way to organize content. The cross linking alone makes it much better than our current system.
Once wiki pages are "finished" they'll become collaborative articles and will be locked from further editing, although comments will always be available.
Think of Wiki pages as a step between forum posts and articles.

As far as I know, articles will continue to be in place. However, a wiki will allow us to collaborate as a site on particular ideas that one author may not be able to cover alone. For example, how we, as a site, define zombie will depend on what information is present in the wiki.
I'd like to draw up some guidelines for how the wiki should be structured. If we want to make it effective, we need to keep it relatively organized.
Friends, is proper English so hard?

Captain's status: I miss the random thread button and will remake it if there is popular demand.
Sorry, just want to ask. I dont really know what a "wiki" is. And how does one read other "wiki"s or how to know if a particular "wiki" already exists?
it may come or it may not. But its not just zeds that may ruin your life
Definition: (From wikipedia.org)
A wiki (wik-ee) is a website whose users can add, modify, or delete its content via a web browser using a simplified markup language or a rich-text editor. Wikis are typically powered by wiki software and are often created collaboratively by multiple users. Examples include community websites, corporate intranets, knowledge management systems, and note taking.
At this point there are only a few wiki pages created. If you want to make one, you can just make it. Even if you don't finish the page, the point of a wiki page is that you can start it and others can add to it later. They're collaborative.
