Nothing's perfect. I find the approach interesting though and certainly prefer it to wading through lots of comments to pick out the one or two of interest.

All that said, having had more of a play with mediawiki (which btw is the software wikipedia uses) today and looked around a bit, I think it highly unlikely that I will be keeping it or perhaps using any off the shelf wiki.

It is giving me some ideas though, although I doubt I'll be doing anything until after my planned "annual maintance" in November...

For now I'll just leave it up there, most likely idle.
