Default Ready for widespread usage (aka abuse)?

I'm thinking it's time to post about the Wiki on the front page to draw more attention to it.

Do you guys think we have enough base articles and stuff ready? Also, is anyone willing to keep an eye on the "Recent Changes" list to make sure there's no abuse?

I'll be happy to keep an eye on the recent changes,I enjoyed working on the Wiki whe it first started (might do some more now).

I think we have enough recent TG episodes to satisfy everyone, but the Fifth Gear side is still looking empty. images/smilies/lol.gif

I now declare this wiki... OPEN!

Let the torrents of spam begin.

edit: I've set 2 bookmarks to show changes by logged in users and anonymous users separately, quite surprised it lets me do that images/smilies/smile.gif

I trust registered users more, but I'll keep an eye on them too.

Only users logged into their forum account can make changes. Guests cannot. images/smilies/smile.gif

This should cut down on spam a ton as well as keep track of who's doing the editing as while it's easy to make a duplicate MediaWiki account, we'll catch you if you make a duplicate forum account. images/smilies/wink.gif
