I just wanna bump this to ask you guys for some helping building the wiki more.

Find an area in the wiki that is just a link to a post here on evoM. Go to the post and copy over the important information.

If there is something you don't see create it.

We need everyone's help to get this thing going.

Awesome dudical!

Remember everyone, the idea is to capture all of the info, not just link back to evoM. That will work fine initially, but we need to make sure we have good, conscise articles on the wiki. On the forum, hosted images get dropped, deleted, info gets old, etc.

Dudical, I really think it would be helpful to build the structure of the Wiki before dumping in a ton of info. that way there is less moving and shuffling. As I said before, let me know what info we need to have there and I'll help design the architecture. If people know where to put things, they are more likely to provide info.

I have a stock un-molested 94170015 rom if you want me to upload it, just let me know how to link it to the rom listing at the bottom of the wiki.

ok, heres a dumb question... why are we putting everything on the main page? If it is a dedicated wiki we should be paging things out into sections and cross linking.

Also, for anyone who can't figure out how to create an account there is a link at the top left.

Dudical and I are working on the sections/pages now ...

First, you'll need to create an account and log in. Then, in the sidebar on the left, you'll see an "Upload file" link. Click on that, and upload your ROM; I'd probably try to name it "ROMID.HEX" for consistency (ie. 94170015.HEX).

At that point, one of us can make a new page for it if you're not comfortable doing it, or you can go ahead and create a page named "94170015" that links to the ROM image you just uploaded.

Ideally, I'd love to see an unmolested version of every ROM on there, if only for archival purposes. tephra, would you be willing to upload the ones you have access to? (And feel free to put your modified versions up as well, if you'd like, although I can understand if you'd rather distribute them your own way.)

Are you creating a section for the Lancer too? Or is this intended to be Evo only?

logic

Honestly, this can be whatever the community needs it to be. If there's ECU hacking information regarding the base Lancer that you'd like to share up there, there's no reason you couldn't create an account and start making pages. I don't know a whole lot (er, anything, really) about the Lancer ECUs; are they based on the same processor as the Evo ECU? Similar part numbers?

(Now I feel rather silly for having picked the name "evoecu" for the hostname. If this gets popular enough, I'll just register a dedicated domain for it that makes more sense.)

Going off on a bit of a tangent, I suspect there might be some misunderstanding of how a wiki works by a few folks. You create an account. You create pages. You edit existing pages. Other people edit what you've done. Et cetera. Think of it as a collaborative brain dump. This will all, by definition, be fairly fluid, especially for the first little while.

touringbubble and I have laid out a structure that we want to follow. There will be some changes made to the layout of the wiki over the next couple days. Once these changes are done I think the layout will be complete and the wiki will be ready to grow.
