Agree with you absolutely TK.

You ought to be able to find an alternative source to Wick to house your articles in READ-ONLY form.

I like the stuff you guys write and am looking forward to reading the article on US oil shale.

If I couldn't find another place to house my archives that does not have endless--and often malicious--editability,
I would be seriously tempted to piss a total solution down my pant leg.

Just thoughts.

Keep writing.

Of course a wiki should always be LINKED to manifestos as deliberate and individual as the non-Drumbeat TOD stuff.  Completely replacing the blog format and archives with a wiki isn't an option.

A wiki would be about joining it all together into a topical format, IE having a page on Russia include an overview of their energy policy and resources, links to viewpoints and opposing viewpoints in major blogposts(especially TOD), a chronological list of recent news stories, etc.

A consensus narrative is what this site lacks - a meaningful way to find "This is what TOD thinks on this topic" without doing ten searches and reading fifty comment discussions, which newbies are simply not likely to do.
