Unsettled issues with the Wiki

Phoenix member Elrood has pointed out that there are still some unsettled issues related to Rise of the Phoenix, the Wiki page of Phoenix Roleplaying. Among those issues are the migration from the Wiki to Phoenix’ own host at wiki.phoenix-rp.com and the management of the Wiki account. Management of the Wiki page was appointed to Jason Andersen, but with his departure some of the pages were inaccessible to any other member. With his return this particular issue can be settled, but the underlying issue remains. As Elrood stated it: ‘How should Phoenix handle access to the admin account for the Wiki?’

There are also some members who question the usefulness of the Wiki altogether, arguing that a few sticky threads would achieve the same result. (mb)
