Today we had a spam attack on our Wiki again, so I have just cleaned many spam pages. These spam pages are posted by existing user accounts, probably with credentials leaked from other websites (reused passwords). I don't really fancy to do this kind of cleanup work often, as it is quite boring. So I am considering to make some changes to the wiki, for example by making it readonly. But before I do that I would like to know how many of you use the wiki and how you use it. So that we can find a good balance between what the users want and the admin load for keeping it clean and running.
Ideally a Wiki is open for edits, so that the entire community can contribute and the knowledge on it will grow. But the reality is that in all those years that we have the FSDeveloper Wiki (that must be over 15 years now), that only a dozen of users have made active contributions to the content of the Wiki. So the concept of the Wiki has never really taken off as I hoped initially.
But on the other hand closing the Wiki also does not feel right and at least the knowledge that is on it should be preserved somehow. So please let me know how you use it and what you think,
