, 14:04, 9 October 2008→Format: adding suggestion of a combination of both blog and wiki, suggesting that the wiki be confined to identified users
::Discussion between parties gets lost in "consensus" of page
::Discussion between parties gets lost in "consensus" of page
::Using the same format as that of the subject that one is trying to describe may not be a valid way of producing analysis, especially if the same core principles (ie NPOV, "consensus") are used. It's perhaps important to "think outside the of box".

===A combination of Message Board/Wiki===
:'''Pros'''
::Allow flexibility in having informal discussions as well as more polished writing in the wiki
::Is already the "setup" at the WR, with the message board and the "blog"
::If access to the "wiki" is reserved for named individuals, then the pseudonyms can still provide information or evidence on the message board, which can later be sourced and investigated. This allows separation of "theories" and "hypothesis'" from actual sourced and investigated pieces of information. This might also be useful from a legal standpoint if a disclaimer is given on the message board concerning the validity of statements made there, as opposed to the wiki.
:'''Cons'''
::Some information may get lost in the process of sifting through the posts made to the message board.
::Using a separate system with the message board being the only area accessible to pseudonymous contributors might make the area attractive to vandals and other attention-seeking individuals.
