Definitely. It would be good if someone could come up with a template page that each radio can try to copy for some consistency. That also makes it easier for someone to come along and fill out a new model's page.
Mike, since this was your idea, would you be interested in doing that? The wiki syntax is really easy to figure out.
Thanks!

======================= Dan right now I don't have a user account on the wiki - I assume you're the one who gets to do that. What information do you need from me?
I have a basic outline already mapped. I'm pretty familiar with the MediaWiki dialect, I'm just unfamiliar with the Redmine environment. I can send you the outline off-list, and we can go over the particulars. The outline uses what is already on the wiki to 'surround' the topic, as you will see.
I've got some links for the Baofeng models - as there's a small number of these, and they're a pretty popular topic, it seems to me that it's a logical place to start to shake out the concepts before anything gets published

What could be easier than to download from your radio a template, go to Query and import from your choice of online databases, make your edits then upload? That's what I did for 8 different radios of mine. 5 Chinese and 3 Yaesu. It requires only common sense. I wouldn't need a pre-configured template to rely upon for what? If you could explain the less of a learning curve I'd love to hear it. Or, am I completely off track here and need to double up on my Alzheimer's meds?

You create an account first and then tell me the username and I'll endow it with editing privileges.

No reason to do it in private, here is fine! But, I'm happy for you to just put it on the wiki and we can tweak it when it's there. That's the point after all :)

Well, I dunno what you mean by publish exactly. No need to be formal, just go forth and do it!
Thanks :)
