Argentina has the world's highest official rate of inflation. Zimbabwe changed how they calculated theirs to put Argentina in the top spot.
I thought I'd hire some hams in Argentina at low wages to build an HPwiki with manuals, photos, etc.
As a practical matter I cannot hire people without specifying the task to be done and arranging for some supervision of the result. So I made up a trial statement of work without knowing anything about hpwiki.org and asked Dave if he'd host it. Dave reminded me he had one. It doesn't get enough attention for a search to return it.
That led to accusations I was fundamentally trying to change the wiki. All I was trying to do was describe in generic terms the task of creating wiki entries in *any* wiki.
Without a complete and clear explanation of the structure of the wiki, the reasoning behind it and complete examples of what a page should look like the chances of getting the desired result are a random walk. And no one is happy. Generating hundreds of malformed or incomplete pages is not helpful. They will just get deleted.
I thought documenting 600-800 instruments in the wiki with local copies of all the available documentation would be a nice Christmas present to all and stimulate others adding to it. But I no longer see any way to accomplish that.
My apologies to all,
Reg
