I added some stuffs. I did a few sentences on each wavelength and added some diagrams, charts etc. I gave Wicked the article it deserves as well. This can get pretty good. Is it possible to replace the title with a banner HappyTomato?

 

[happytomato]

The title of the wiki? Yes.
Do I have a banner. No.
Should someone make one. Yes.
Would I be happy to use it. Yes.

 

[happytomato]

Also, nice work VilliageIdiot. Keep it up and expect a boost in permissions.

 

[john_lawson]

10-4 nice job to both of you ;D

 

[happytomato]

Thanks, now we just need to get moar members!

 

[happytomato]

Does anyone feel like making a banner or should I?

I dont want to go in and change people's additions, but some of the stuff in there is not really wikipedia-esque (for lack of a better word.)

Not sure if you want it to be more informal than unbiased and neutral, but its just some of the way things are worded in there.

 

[happytomato]

Feel free to change stuff. You like everyone else has a right to change things.

 

[VillageIdiot]

We don't want it to be neutral. Some companies don't deserve that. =P

 

[happytomato]

True, I don;t really want it to be like wikipedia in the sense that everything mut be cited and neutral. It should really be informal, but not lax.

I really don't like how links work in this wiki. It's really a nuisance and I haven't even figured out how I can link to a page and then create it. Is this 'easy edit' thing configurable or can it be disabled?

Why don't you just use mediawiki. I've used it and it is extremely easy. And, people can use their editing experience from wikipedia directly, and don't have to learn new stuff.

Maybe you can even request a laser wiki at wikia.com (comparable to wetpaint.com at first sight)

http://www.wikia.com is pretty good.

Then there is MediaWiki. http://www.mediawiki.org That's the same wiki software used for Wikipedia, they've just made it freely available

 

[happytomato]

Ok, do we want Wikia or Media wiki? Lets pick one and I'll transfer everything.

I'm setting wikia up.
