For ages I've thought for me anyway it's quite hard to understand all the points in a discussion here after its been done because there's about 5 pages or so and points develop as it goes thru. And discussion have different points coming from different threads (possibly from months or years ago).
It would be a task, and the way its done would have to be worked out, but have you ever thought of wikifying some of the discussions into nightly's own wiki to bring together all the points in the discussions?
I imagine it wouldnt all be done in one go, but people might add a bit themselves as time goes on, cutting and pasting the relevent points, and then someone else formatting as time goes on.

I think this was tossed around a time or two but nothing ever came of it.

From what I saw in the USAToday, wiki is unreliable. We're probably better off without it. People can't keep their SF straight when they have to use a board handle, it would be chaos with no accountability.

ShadowDog, have you used wikipedia that much yourself? We've got two threads, if the mods want to close this and use the other thread above thats fine. I can't find a definition of SF. significant facts?
