Here are some of the reason's I hate wiki's. * You must edit pages while online. Not everybody has internet connections like in USA. * Wiki's tend to be disorganized by nature. * They become popular due to (semi)automated cross-referencing * You cannot use the collected information in any other format Standard web pages (plain HTML) can be easily organized better than wiki's. You can have the website html live in a source code repository, so the community can submit patches. An automated update script could be run to update the real website from the repository every 30 minutes etc... But you still sit with the same problem that the original content cannot be used in any other format or use... This is why 'fpdoc' is so useful. One format that is easy to edit offline, and you can generate HTML, PDF's, CHM's, plain text etc... Much more useful data format.
