OTOH, the currenty wikipages are not really suited to
discussions at all -
I'd rather not have someone edit my "posts" - whether it be for fixing
the speling or whatever.
Well, I for one would object to any system that doesn't allow me to edit
other people's comments. It's too useful to let traditionalism and
conservatism ruin it. It's not just about fixing atrocious spellings,
it's also about removing objectionable parts of comments without
removing the entire comment, or about summarising an unnecessarily long
piece of prose. I don't see any point in listing the advantages here
since wikis have shown time and again that they work, and Wikipedia
wasn't the first. Yes, it defies the well-established and widely loved
web forum paradigm where everyone "owns" their own comments, but we're
not a web forum, we're a wiki, and wiki is our paradigm.
