Hey guys anon from the previous thread, asking about creating a wiki for /sfg/
I was not expecting the large amount of support for the idea of creating our own wiki, and I really want to work on creating it. Now I really could use more feedback on a few items and I really hope this will actually lead somewhere rather than fizzling out. Here's a couple questions for you guys.
1) What are we trying to accomplish with this wiki. Is it going to be a site dedicated for /sfg/ related memes and activity, or are we going to allow for general spaceflight plus /sfg/ specific items.
2) Are we trying to copy what /g/ has done with their wiki
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Main_Page. ie we want a proper domain name, hosted on a dedicated web server with a mediawiki back end (i have no idea if that's what you would call it) or would we be satisfied piggy backing off some other wiki hosting site. Fandom is the first thing that comes to mind, but I don't think that's what people want. However if there was something in between that you are aware of, please share it with us.
3) if we are going to go the proper domain name route, what would it be?
spaceflightgeneral.com is available but im open to alternatives like what /g/ did.
I'm also going to ask you all to be patient with me. I'm a fairly technically minded person and I believe I could setup a proper media wiki site, however it would be my first time setting up a website, so their will be an associated learning curve. Assuming we are going the proper website route, if anyone has experience I would appreciate some help getting something setup. Personally the cost associated with running a small site is not the issue for me, so I'm not looking for money or donations, but your time would be very helpful.
Please let me know what you guys think.
