I do a fair amount of searching around forums to help me answer questions and they are really helpful, but sometimes finding the information can be a struggle.
Has anyone considered starting a wiki or similar to consolidate the wealth of information here and make it easier for people to improve or contribute to guides, how-tos and lists of information?
Personally I think it would be a great idea and would be happy to commit some time to help out if it went ahead.

It would have Bern a great idea 10 years ago.
There used to be a lot of useful FAQs & sticky threads, they didn't work & idiots still just joined up & asked the same repeat questions over & over again which annoyed a lot of long term forum members.

Nothing, 206 is obsolete / superseded twice, this forum is dead now compared to what it used to be.
The Peugeot forum attracts more 206 threads & new users then this place.

Yep! This forum used to be a million times better with well-informed veteran users. Seems the 206 is too old for people to really care for anymore..

This website is for those who know how to find information, and are able to separate chavf from wheat.
It is oversaturated (if I search for "GTi 180 ECU", I open tens of threads, and maybe only a few will give me an answer), but with some IT magic we could work this out (mark topic as "Answered" or otherwise); give permissions to some more (not only to a couple of remaining admins) members of this forum to e.g. move topics to "Solved Problems".
And once the initial run-through is done, an initiative to consolidate all the knowledge base in a collaborative medium (like wiki) is a very welcome one!
No other place contains 206-specific Beginner's Guide, HOW-TOs, FAQs, Project Cars...
Other Peugeot/French car forums are great if you want an OEM look on your 206 intercooler setup (from a 406), a V6 conversion, or other straight-swap parts; but otherwise it's just spreading oneself too thin. The target audience of 206info (where people discover it daily, mostly while searching online, register and don't spare a good word) are the ones who focus and are fond of, you guessed it, a 206 
What's the point in killing all what has been collected (even if superseded), and to just move on elsewhere saying "this time we'll make it right"  ? All what we have, could be polished and ever-improved instead. Harvest the writings, restore/reshoot the missing photos, and take it from there!
From all of what has been said above I sense libel -- not enough arguments as to why some proper structurisation can't be done in a collaborative way (ultimately, where anyone can contribute, wiki sounds best IMHO).
