Knowledge Base

Post by indigolemon » Thu Nov 15, 2018 11:36 am

Hi all,

I have added a new forum feature called 'Knowledge Base' :!:

I'm hoping to use this in place of the Wiki we had previously, which required separate logins etc (and which I still to harvest data from).

I have enabled access for everyone, so please submit articles! Also let me know if we need more sections etc.

Be great if people could contribute :)

Note: Submitted articles won't appear immediately as they require Moderator approval ;)

Great idea.

It's not looking great, the version of mediawiki was so old I'm struggling to get it going on modern hardware/software.

However I've been using this to grab stuff, will keep nabbing a couple of articles a night:
