I think in light of the fact that none of us can recall who is the admin for the Wiki it might be an idea to have the info on it saved to another site cos theres a non-zero chance it could all just disappear.
I for one would be happy to, for instance, collate all my 1000 Islands info with other peoples info on Yamoto, Khitai etc. into a fan pdf detailing Eastern Legend.
I'd be up for that - feel free to take any of the maps of Yamato from the Cobwebbed Forest that you'd like to include (with appropriate acknowledgement, of course
). I'd even be happy to create additional maps (in the same style) if you wanted, too.

If we want a Wiki, I do have the facility to host one on this site. But I would only want to do that if
(A) we've really tried to locate the 'owner' of the original (a search through the Yahoogroups archive might help with that)
(B) other people decide they want one, because while I would host it, and might even contribute to it, I doubt I'd be that active on it (who can say, though).
(C) Nobody else wants to do it - I am conscious of concentrating too much on one fan site and we already have the forum here.
I'm with Damian in that I'd rather write up my material and publish it myself rather than wrestle with the Wiki (which no longer lets me login anyway
).
As for hosting the Wiki, I'd be happy with it here (as anywhere) but could also create a Wiki in the Cobwebbed Forest, too if you were concerned about eggs and baskets. I'm happy to go with the flow of prevailing opinion on this - I don't mind the work involved in setting one up and maintaining it, although I suspect the effort would be minimal given how few updates there have been to the existing one.
