    (A [Thread=62678]link[/Thread], for reference.)

    After discussing the idea of a SciForums wiki with several people, I have this much worked out: We can install the MediaWiki software onto the SciForums server and make a subdomain, like wiki.sciforums.com.

    We need to hammer out more details, however. This thread is to settle on two things: what sort of content we should have, and whether or not a dedicated subforum should be created at SciForums.

    There are two general ideas I'm aware of as far as content. The first one is that the wiki be all about SciForums — its history, members, culture, etc. The second one is that it have various scientific and/or educational content. The options are by no means restricted to these two; this is a brainstorm, y'dig?

    A new, dedicated subforum would be a place where we could post threads with information and material for any given subject we think should have an article at our wiki. I like to call them "workshop" threads; thus, this would be a "workshop" forum. This subforum would also be a constant reminder to us that we have a wiki and that we have to keep adding stuff to it.

    So are these good or bad ideas? Why? What do you suggest?

    Let's brainstorm! I wanna see what you come up with. Your idea just might make SciForums history.

    You should keep a list of active members.

    What's this "you" business? We would all be free to participate in the wiki project.

    I think 100 posts before you can be put on a members list

    And every member should make a page for them, so if i looked up my name, there would be

    Matt Taylor (singer)
    Matt Taylor (Sciforums member)

    HAHAHA

    I actually thought we could make articles for each of the notable members. I don't think they should be autobiographical userpages, though, just biographical.

    I think we should have articles for notorious members. Much more interesting to read a scandal sheet!!

    Controversial subjects categorized into different opinions?

    Someone write an article (or stub).

    You can write something on Xev. That should get the juices flowing.

    Then on Sunday just to be different,
    Shes u super king kamehameha bitch

    Have you ever met Xev,
    She's the biggest bitch in the whole wide world,
    She's a mean old bitch, she has stupid hair,
    She's a bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch
    Bitch, bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch
    She's a stupid bitch, Xev's a bitch,
    And she's such a dirty bitch.

    Talk to kids around the world,
    It might go a little something like this...

    Xev, she's a big fat, stinking bitch
    Big old fat fuckin' bitch!
    Yeahhhhh, Chaaaaa"

    Xev

    A member on sciforums and once upon a time a moderator of the blabla forum. Although there were strong suspicions that Xev was a fat male specimen of the nerd species sitting naked and masturbating behind a worn out keyboard a series of mindaltering photographs suggested in fact that she perhaps had a vagina and a set of boobs (not the birds).

    She participated in many legendary flamewars, none of which are memorable. I once had the pleasure of calling her bitch, or should I say someone probably did.

    Xev's departure
    Her departure from sciforums shocked the community. Sciforums went offline for months for this very reason. The owner of sciforms, David whatwashisname, could not stand looking at the forum's active users list anymore and not see Xev. Therefore sciforums was sold to a third party which never heard of Xev. We at sciforums find that hard to believe.

    In her memory the don quichote of sciforums, invert lexus, wrote a poem in her honour while spanking his spuriousmonkey. Here is the unabridged version.


    "Oooooooooh.

    Trivia
    It is rumoured that Dr Lou natic made his famous 'mangina' paint picture after a session where Xev posed life for him on her webcam.

    Stole it, actually.
    I merely inserted "Xev" for "Kyle's Mom."
    Kyle's Mom's a Bitch in all it's uncensored glory.

    Anyway.
    As to Xev, fact is that she's not just a bitch. She's smart as hell and at times something more pokes out from beneath her defenses. Others here share her caustic nature and some have been compared to her in many ways, and yet, few have the same rabid nature that Xev possesses.
    I found her out on the web, by the way, and asked her to come back to the forums. This was before the ownership change. She said she'd think about it, but never did. I can't say whether I'm disappointed or not about that. I suppose it would depend on which face she showed upon her return.

    She looks good with Ice Cream though, eh? And with a knife?

    I suggest that this is contary to wikirules and should be excised immediately. Leans far too heavily on personal opinion. The previous paragraph might need some editing to fit into wikistandards.

    Also, I find it highly unwiki that I can't edit your post.

    South Park!

    It's easy to learn.

    Although we don't necessarily have to adhere to Wikipedia's standards, I believe it would be a good idea to keep things non-personal. So I'd have to agree.

    Then won't you be happy when we get our wiki!

    How would we manage the false opinions? Such as that AIDS isn't caused by HIV?
