It would be helpful to have the 'common' questions in some specificthreads--I like the stickys in each section approach. Then youcould read something quick and specific, and follow it up with anyanswers you didn't glean from the sticky on the board. I knowlots of people ask for a reference to a thread or something that theycan skim through quickly--AND it would be great to have it there forrefreshing one's memory

Agreed, i hate when message board snobs just yell "go search" at questions. having the repeated information summarized somewhere though like in the articles might just cut down on repeat questions and we can still continue our useless banter about the topics in the threads =)]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 16:46:27 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90500&title=beginners-section#90500 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : I like the helpfulnessand overall...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90494&title=beginners-section#90494 Author: Mike Savage

I like the helpfulness and overall friendlyness of this board. I would hope it wouldn't get to the point where newbies got the cold shoulder and were just told to do a search (or something similar) to find their answers. If so we would be just like so many other boards.]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 15:52:26 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90494&title=beginners-section#90494 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : I like Jakes idea of how to generate...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90445&title=beginners-section#90445 Author: dnellans

I like Jakes idea of how to generate the documents but I think they should be moved into the "Articles" section of the website, we only have two articles there and that is weaksauce. This is where articles on topics should actually go!]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 11:28:41 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90445&title=beginners-section#90445 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : pistonfister wrote:I really...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90435&title=beginners-section#90435 Author: Jake Pehrson

If we wanted to keep it part of the message board we could make a topic, and allow people to post edits as replies. After the edits have been made the replies could be removed so there is just one main doc for each topic. I would imagine after a couple of months the edits would trickle off and we would have a pretty good document.

I think the club is doing a great job of promoting our website (and mesageboard). If we decide on WIKI, it should be seemless to our website...like the messageboard is.]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 10:43:11 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90433&title=beginners-section#90433 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : What about a sticky where we could...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90403&title=beginners-section#90403 Author: Suzy

What about a sticky where we could link certain threads? Like my sticky
on RC?]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2005 07:47:22 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90403&title=beginners-section#90403 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : I really like the idea of keeping...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90385&title=beginners-section#90385 Author: ewaldsreef

A true "wiki" would have to be independent from the message board, unless you just want to have people submit their changes to somebody.]]> Mon, 19 Dec 2005 22:40:11 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90383&title=beginners-section#90383 <![CDATA[Beginners Section : A decloration of Fishdependance!...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9585&PID=90360&title=beginners-section#90360 Author: tileman
