Hi guys, I agree, confusing, but it's classic flexible wiki functionality where you can create Wiki pages and then you have to link to them manually otherwise they hang out in the black hole of cyberspace. I've threw a link up there to create wiki pages in that fashion thinking that some users might find it useful (I did for creating a wiki page of the notes on the last meet up). I'm on the fence about it.

Haha amazing, so meta. This one is definitely influenced by my experience in the Drupal issue queues where the original text is editable by anyone and the comments are permanent. Having the original text editable allows you to update the thread AT THE TOP so when the thread gets into the triple digits then someone can edit the original text to summarize the discussion. In the Drupal community we suffer from conversations that will start up again like 50 times because no one has the time to read the whole conversation. As for the needing to go back and edit in general, I agree, I'm the same way and I try to use the preview button as much as possible to force myself to reread things. Unfortunately there is something funny with the preview mode right now. See http://dev.farmhack.gotpantheon.com/forums/clicking-preview-button-forum-topics-results-error. I also see a need to keep comments permanent for accountability. I think it keeps people civil. I might be wrong though.

Haha, ya, we're definitely going to have to expand/modify those rules. If anyone wants to keep the ball rolling feel free to post a new forum topic called "Community Collaboration Rules Proposal .1". After a few iterations and some discussion we can vote on one. We could do a vote right now though, an "is this good enough to launch with?" vote.
