Simviation Wiki - Contributors sought

Postby pete » Thu Jul 22, 2010 6:29 am

As part of the uplcoming new Simviation site - we are putting the tutorials, information, etc into a wiki site - Simviation Wiki. We are using the exact model used by Wikipedia.

Anyone prepared to contribute to this information resource would be very welcome. The method of editing/creating pages is pretty easy.

Only approved contributors will be able to edit pages so pages will be protected.

Simviation Wiki contributors would be invited to contribute to the following areas:


Flight Sim information (current , previous series, etc)

Flight Sim tutorials

Real Aviation Information

Other related areas also invited.



Please respond here or contact me by PM.


Full credits will be given.

Thank you.

I can add or edit as long as I have internet access and the time (it's sometimes restricted to less than 30 minutes or not at all -- closed on Sundays).

I dont think this will help much but I have a few fs tutorials on youtube that you can use if you'd like.

ILS Tutorial (737), Autopilot(737), install textures, install planes, install panels, install gauges, and how to make a fs video...

Can I ask what is exactly happening to the site. I've heard some rumors and talk about a new forum and things like that, but no actual real information. Maybe a post in the news section would clear this up.  ;)

Thanks.

I can help in Screenshots section but the problem is I don't know how much time I will have to dedicate to this project. I will be very busy but I'll do what I can. :)

I'd love to be able to help with the Wiki, but I'm not sure I have enough info to contribute. I'm not sure how much info you're looking for, but I might be able to do something for multiplayer or scenery design. I might also be able to do something on aircraft/scenery installation.

And if A1 is too busy and needs help with screenshots, I'd be willing to help there too.

I would love to be a contributor, I'm not an expert, but I'll try to help anywhere needed.
