hey, maybe we could chat about this. ball barian has a good thread that collects links.

can wiki do ratings?

If somebody really really really wants a Wiki then I can set it up, I'm quite experienced with MediaWiki, even with the source as I have written some MediaWiki extensions myself.

What people tend to overlook is that having something like a Wiki does not automagically create content, though. Somebody has to take good care of it, or it will end up just like the map list (crowded, disorganized) or the Strategy Wiki (only some bits and parts, never seems to really take off).

If you want to use some CMS software you'll have to update it regularly, too, which can be a pain. So personally I'd encourage that somebody creates his own solution instead.
