Do-It-Yourself Maxima Wiki (encyclopedia for how-to information on repair/tuning)

Open to all 1st through 6th Generation Maxima Owners.

I got this idea while seeing how Org users (in particular the 3rd Gen forum) are having to scour discussion threads trying to find a particular symptom or problem they are experiencing with their Maxima. For those who are not familiar with Wikis, they are basically living documents of an encyclopedia where the author is YOU, the Maxima owner/enthusiast. I put up the DIYMW in the attempt to help collect all the information available on the Org, 4DSC.com discussion, and the Internet so that diagnosis, repair, and improving can be made easier. You can upload graphics, PDFs, and/or videos to help explain your Maxima improvement.

DIYMW is FREE (as in beer). It's meant to aide the novice owner who wants to be able to put a little more sound in their Maxima, or the owner that wants to squeeze out a few more horses, or that guy that wants to know just how big his rims under his 6th gen. DIYMW will give credit where credit is due. Anyone who has chased a problem under that hood knows how troublesome it can be to find more information about it.

Visit the Do-It-Yourself Maxima Wiki and help contribute to other owners and enthusiasts as yourself. I'm also recruiting moderators and technicians to make sure the information provided is as accurate as possible.

Help build a library of Maxima information for Maxima owners. Leave the discussion for the Org

 

good work man, delete this and post it in GENERAL forum though

 

You put a lot of work into that Wiki. Not sure what the best way is going to be to collect ALL the info. that is out there and catalog it into one central place. I think that's what the point of the stickies is... perhaps the wiki will make it easier to navigate through all the info. and find stuff...

 

What is a 'wiki'?

 

sweeet...nice job man.

 

WIKI
Part of Speech: noun.
Definition: a collaborative Web site set up to allow user editing and adding of content.
Etymology: 1995; < Hawaiian wiki wiki quick.
Usage: sometimes cap.

<communications> A collaborative web site comprised of the
perpetual collective work of many authors. Similar to a web
log in structure and logic, a wiki allows anyone, using a
web browser, to edit, delete or modify content that has been
placed on the web site including the work of other authors.

In contrast, a blog, typically authored by an individual, does
not allow visitors to change the original posted material,
only add comments.

The term can also refer to the software used to create the
site. Wiki wiki means "quick" in Hawaiian. The first wiki was
created by Ward Cunningham in 1995.

 

wow, i think i just found a new favorite site! haha, this would be really great once it gets developed by people! Great job! i think that it will replace many of the stickies and also many noob threads... assuming they use this site first.

 

Great idea, but a lot of work though

 

You should add a section called "rice" because if DIYMW turns out anything like the .org, that's gonna account for 90% of your content.
Cynicism aside though, excellent site and good job setting it up. Thanks!
