#1: Wiki or other formats...? Author: neilneil2000, Posted: Sun Jun 19, 2016 4:49 pm ---- 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.

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.

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..

#7: Re: Wiki or other formats...? Author: Sim, Location: West CountryPosted: Wed Jun 22, 2016 9:35 pm ---- 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 goodword) 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What's the point in killing all what has been collected (even if superseded), and to just move on elsewhere saying "this time we'll make it right" ?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).
