Introducing Scroll Saw Wiki

March 9, 2009

ss-wikiI’m happy to announce a new feature to the Scroll Saw Village network.  Introducing, Scroll Saw Wiki.  Scroll Saw Wiki is a new scroll saw reference anybody can edit!  You can find this new resource at www.scrollsawwiki.com.

Scroll Saw Wiki operates on the same powerful software Wikipedia operates.  Anybody can edit, add info, or create brand new articles with ease.  The idea is to have a robust reference created by the scroll saw community for the scroll saw community.  It could house all kinds of information including equipment, scroll saw manufacturers, cutting techniques, different types of scroll sawing, types of wood, books, magazines, websites, blogs, and the list goes on.  If it has anything to do with scrolling, add it!

Editing and creating articles is easy to do. If the link is blue, there is an article already written. Any written article can be edited by anybody just by clicking the Edit button. If the link is red, there hasn’t been an article written, so feel free to write the article. You can do a search for a term and if it comes up empty, you’re allowed to create that article! Its that easy! And don’t be concerned with writing a brilliant article. Just write it and if it needs to be edited, someone will come along eventually and fill in the holes, fix grammar or whatever! If you need help, there’s some help pages on the wiki. I’ve also created a Wiki Talk forum at Scroll Saw Village (in the Help & Feedback section).  There you can ask questions, request articles, discuss articles, and organize tasks.

Have fun with this new resource. Hopefully together, we can create an awesome scroll saw reference that will benefit all scrollers!
