Hello Gert,

question for me now is: do you LIKE to find pages what should be deleted
or pages what should be merged with another page?

Cheers!

> August 2008 - experience with the typo3 wiki
> 
> Hi to all wiki Workaholics and typo3 programmers
> 
> I know about the great potential of a wiki (or knowledge database),
> and for that reason I did try to get familiar with the typo3 wiki
> to gain some help for my problems and to add my current expieriences
> to help others too.

> 
> after some (better: many) wasted noctunal (nightly?) hours, I did give up !

> 1. the current usability of the typo3 wiki is terrible
>     (I did setup a wiki 4 years ago, it seem that nothing has changed
> since that time)
> 2. the main menu has to be changed / updated / styled to internet standards
> 3. the overview of topics specially for the German part is crowded
> 4. the search-function is a mess
>     within a search I got 28 answers, but in non (zero) answer,
>     my topic was found, terrible
> 5. for stressed programmers, the pages width is a lot to wide, must be
> much smaller (shorter)
> 6. much old and !!! wrong articles are not cleared or updated !!!!!
>     wasting too much of my life-time, this is not better than google,
> 7. each article must (absolutely must) have its creation and !! last
> update date on top
>     to separate old worthless junk from current information.
> 8. the wiki is really slow ?? 15 sec for response ?? (with DSL 16.000)
> wasting time too ....
> 9. I didnt easyly find the topic or link, to create a new page ????
> what's that ??
> 
> 10. conclusion:
>     Currently the wiki is a really small help only, with that level of
> quality
>     nobody is motivated to add the current help/tips and tricks from his
> individual
>     personal blogs into the generic typo3 wiki, it is not comfotably.
> 
> We are using one of the finest CMS on the world
> and our absolutely needed wiki is a poor playground ???
> 
> Who and where are the makers of the wiki and how can we talk together,
> to expand the team and setup or establish a reference wiki for our
> community ?
