In running this site over the past few years I have generally been very impressed with the detail knowledge of many of the Legacy owners here. In purchasing my own spec.B this past year I began "using" the site as I'm sure many do in search of specific information. I didn't always easily find things I wanted to know.
If you look around the tech forums here we have lots of stickies. Lots. As well as forums just for walkthroughs. I came to the basic conclusion that even as much as I tried to neatly and intelligently organize the large amount of information here, that the basic design of the site is a forum... built for discussion and information organization is merely an afterthough.
I looked at the information tools I use day to day for work and other hobbies and thought, why can't we have something like this for the Legacy community, a place to share, link, and donate all the knowledge into an organized site -- also known to some as a wiki. Moreover, why not have one for the entire Subaru community.
So I'm launching SubiWiki.com as an answer to my problem with knowledge organization here, and I'd like everyones help here in getting the Legacy content squared away to better help current and future Legacy owners. The site right now is pretty bare, but I'm working on it and I'd like you too as well.
As an added incentive, I'm going to offer the 5 best contributors there an article of LegacyGT swag of their choice (hoodie, tshirt, polo, etc), to be decided by July 5th. We'll probably offer a poll over here to let the community decide.
Accounts there are required to add/edit pages.

Thanks for reading!

...finally, a place to go where everything will be organized! - Not unlike my sock drawer (and nothing else in my life  ). This has the potential to be a fantastic resource and I look forward to abusing it as such!

Tide,
If you'd like the skin that http://350z-tech.com is using, I can give it to you..
I'm planning on modifying it for our local Subaru group to use here in Birmingham.
Also, http://350z-tech.com should give you some great ideas on how to organize a car wiki. The guy over there has spent tons of time organizing the site and it works pretty well (unlike some wikis).
Also, I recommend that you publicize this pretty hard at NASIOC and USMB as there are a TON of super knowledgeable people on those sites.
