As from time to time we get a repost of usfull information would it be an idea for a sticky page to be created by the admins in each section that we get posts of interest.

For example the admin would create a sticky with the title along the lines of 'usefull post's' or whatever.

Then the thread would be locked down and only the admins could edit it to keep it clean.
Within the post could be a title for example the one I covered again yesterday 'Rad switches' this would then be a link to that post.

That way it would only be 1 sticky for lots of links but the original post can still be added to/corrected.

Just a thought.

cracking idea!

Great idea. Just needs to be properly organised by subject and kept clean, ie free of posts without useful info.

As goes for the rest of the net there's a huge amount of useful info out there. The hard bit is finding it. The even harder bit is knowing if the info found is reliable.

The plus of having our own 'resource guide' would be that in time the info will end up being validated or otherwise.

Otherwise known as "Indexing".

Great idea.

there was a kitcar wiki somewhere in the WWW that would be ideal for that sort of thing too.

can't find it at the moment but it would be a great place for this type of donor data.

What might also be good as a sub-category is to have subject matter sorted by; Superchargers, turbos, engine builds, etc

Almost like a power house knowledge base.

like it, the normal site search engine can be a bit hit or miss
