 RobotC Wiki
I found the RobotC Wiki, but was not able to create an account. Is the wiki in development and reserved only for a few to contribute to, or is there an opportunity to be a contributor to the content located there? http://www.robotc.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_PageTodd

 Re: RobotC Wiki
Looks like we need some captchas! Maybe interfacing the forum credentials with the wiki database? Or OpenID plugins...?
I know as part of my website project I am creating a RobotC Blog anyways...

 Re: RobotC Wiki
I've added a small "captcha" to the wiki and allowed creation of users. I'm going to have to investigate a better captcha, but for now it's open.

 Re: RobotC Wiki
Very small captcha indeed. Might I suggest 'ReCaptcha' ? http://recaptcha.net/

 Re: RobotC Wiki
Hi, Just found the wiki, and have done some editing there. A small suggestion is to have a user group that consist of some kind of verified users (x number of edits or something simular) that don't have to enter the captcha every time they do a change. If you do a lot of edits, having to enter the captcha every time isn't ideal

 Re: RobotC Wiki
That is a good suggestion. I will see if I can implement this.

 Re: RobotC Wiki
I've disabled the captcha on just edits. It is still on for edits with URL's, and page creations. I hope this gets rid of the nuisance with small edits.
