I think the Wikicities project could be a hosting solution. http://www.wikicities.com/wiki/Start_a_new_Wikicity From what I gather, they allow groups of users to start a Wiki if it's said to have a viable audience and a dedicated group of editors. |

Okay. If we should start a wiki, the first step would be to form the group which creates the Wiki and starts filling it with information. Anybody interested? ...I'm in... |

I'm in, as long as I don't have to work out the basic structure of the thing. That part requires a bit of planning, which I am not too fond of. | |||

Well, there has to be some sort of limit. I don't think we can declare it and alpha and omega guide to rom hacking, or a real compendium of sorts, since the very nature of rom hacking makes it loose and dissociated (with a few communities here and there). Rather, a good start would simply be setting up organization by system and games, and then for each game, having a list of categories. Those could include different kinds of hacking and info. For instance: SUPER NINTENDO \/ DONKEY KONG COUNTRY \/ ASM Hacking Offsets Utilities Technical Notes etc. ~ I'm not too knowledgable with all that, so I'm not sure what categories would go where, but the basic idea is to make a place where simple data can be dumped. The high aim of the Wiki is to simply preserve information. For instance, say an obscure game gets hacked by an enterprising individual. He has a thread on ACMLM's about his big project. However, midway, he loses interest, and the thread goes to the back of the forum. If the info were posted to the Wiki, new users could simply go there instead of having to dig through the forum and general internet. Of course, the problem is just motivating people to dump their findings there. And in some cases, it won't be as simple as dumping if people are to make heads or tails of what they're looking it. But the model above is my suggestion, anyhow. |

a good idea, if you're a n00b. |
