I don't think this premise is true at all. We're talking about something like http://readthedocs.org/, which is *way* more successful than most wikis. In fact, I think gardened wikis that work are the exceptions rather than the rule (Arch docs, Wikipedia, and nothing else at any scale). And forums? Gah! They're a nightmare and part of the problem. Stack Exchange is successful because it very strongly is *not* a forum -- and Ask Fedora is less successful because it _is_ a forum which happens to have a UI which mimics the surface-level appearance of Stack Exchange. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- docs mailing list docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
