Well I looked around the net but i couldn't find a modelling wiki. so i decided to make one myself. If you would like to help create content just head over to http://www.model-making.info At the moment it is using mediawiki the same software as wikipedia, so if you have been on that (which i'm sure most of you have) you should be able to find your way out

For those who don't know what a wiki is i will try to explain. a wiki is a website where absolutely anyone can edit the pages or create new ones. So what i'm trying to create is a sort of modelling encyclopaedia.

p.s If another one exists please point me to it. also if this is in the wrong section could someone please move it.

Please reply here and tell me what you think about the idea

Cheers

Killy

There are at least three of them that I know about, four counting yours. One is strictly 1/72 scale, and the others were started for the same reason you started yours. I do not have the sites saved as favorites on this computer, but when I get to my regular computer, I will post links.

A couple of them started around July 2006.

Hey, I was about to make one... (Actually suggested one in the Finescale Modeler forum a few years ago, but nobody cared.)
It's time I put on my tinfoil hat
