I'll glady help with this. I'll be sending you an e-mail shortly.
Quoting you here in case you didn't see the thread
I saw. Though in my opinion, a thread like this is only the first stage. The e-mail I sent to HC has my proposal for this. We need to actually organize ourselves and establish roles and responsibilities. Should this thread gain traction loosely, with no one really "in charge" of this task, it will become a mess where people will likely begin to add the same posts and threads over and over.
Furthermore it is required for someone trusted to also take the time and care to clean up these posts into professionally written, cohesive messages before they are put on the library. Also this needs to be organized because we don't want several people all working on the same article and wasting each other's time.
In addition, one should also take the extra step to not only pick up on useful articles by members, but also consider replies, and other articles of a similar nature, and combine all the useful input in these so long as they cover the same topic, into single comprehensive articles. You don't want to find yourself uploading an article, and then some days later find more information on the same topic that would have been great to add to the article but now it's already uploaded and too late to add anything.
Crediting everyone involved of course. Needless to say our technical wizard Soaring Eagle can definitely work miracles here as we've seen. But we'll see if he wishes to also be involved in this. I think for the time being, we should focus on the task at hand, and afterwards we can start working on this
I definitely look forward to re-reading some of the more wonderful and helpful posts that members have made and bringing them to light again. I already have several in mind. The solution I presented also involves the community, and anybody would also have a chance to voice their opinion, and bring up articles they believe are useful and should be added for review and possibly be cleaned up and added to the library.
And doing so outside of an open thread because, and this has happened already some will go on tangents and the thread loses it's focus and becomes disorganized.
