A Wikipedia is a collaborative, public Web-based encyclopedia. For an example of Wikipedia camera information, see the following entry on the Nikon FG: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon_FG Would it not make sense to add to this page links to all the available FG repair information? I know that it is very satisfying to communicate about specific issues in online forums, but isn't it silly for someone to have to post a forum query to figure out how to get the top off a camera? If you look at the traffic on this excellent forum, you will find that about a third of the questions are very simple and repetitive inquiries that would be easily addressed by a single set of basic repair information organized by camera model. (E.g., How do I get the top off? How do I unjam the film advance? How do I unstick the shutter?) More sophisticated queries should remain in the domain of specialist forums, but the simple, repetitive repair stuff is better left to the Wiki model. |
