We are slowly increasing our number of Wiki contributors.
I would like to raise the topic of Wikiportals as used on Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Portal
and ownership of an area of the wiki.
Basically a portal is like a main page but it is on a particular
topic, and the idea is that it has a maintainer.
So for example somebody who has an interest in Wi-Fi might create a
Wi-Fi portal. The portal would organise everything about Wi-Fi in some
structured way. Eg it would link to the appropriate HCL pages,
ndiswrapper howtos, etc etc. The maintainer can identify missing pages
and also duplicates, they can make sure that the existing pages cover
the topic appropriately. It is the old divide and conquer technique.
Some other Portals might be a Virtulization Portal, YAST Portal, or
anything else that someone is interested in, and SUSE related.
List of Wikipedia Portals

This is a very good idea, already somewhat used: main pages
(pages with sub pages) and even the pages linked from the
sidebar are some sort of portals.
Anyway, i don't see there is really any necessity to
organise (yet) the portals as Wikipedia do, just create the
portal page and go on :-)
one of the wiki interest is the ability to have many
entrypoints suited to each user point of view :-)
