Re: The FIRSTwiki

Let me add a bit more. The idea is to create an enclyopedia for all to view ... but for all to be able to edit (so as to improve) at the same time. This presents the problem -- if two or more people are editing a page and have different views about where it should go, to come to a consensus, they need a place to talk about it. The talk pages are simply meta-data about the page, "unprofessional" stuff that isn't for the general public, only those interested in editing the page. It is, in essence, a "behind the scenes" page. See wikipedia.org to learn more about a wiki (they have some good stuff up there, if you take the time to figure out where to find it).
