I've made thread(s) about this in the past so hopefully the mods are still ok with it.
Maybe some of you remember, but quite a while back I made a Husker Wiki on the wikia server, with the hope of getting the word out and getting a dedicated base of people to make additions and edits. It never really got off the ground and I didn't really have time for it so it just sat there. Well, wikia sucks anyways but now I've stumbled across some free webspace and thought it might be worth a second chance, so alas, a new Husker Wiki exists at http://huskerwiki.org . So this is my plea:
I need people to help, basically. If you don't know what wiki software is (think wikipedia), it's basically a website that, for the most part, anybody can edit without needing knowledge of coding or web design. It's very easy to do, but there is still a ton of depth available. So, these are some of the things I need people to do.
1. Start making pages. They don't have to be in depth at all, but just THERE. The best way to get people to spend time on a wiki is to seed (plant the beginnings of an article/page), and then wait for people to come around and water them, so to speak.
2. Be staff members. It will be totally volunteer, unofficial stuff. You won't be asked to do a lot at all, just to monitor pages for spam (bots like to rape wiki pages), to get the word out about the wiki, etc.
3. For people that are more skilled with wiki synatx and/or HTML, the wiki will eventually need to employ the use of a lot of templates for player bios and junk like that. (an example of this is located here.)
That's all I'm looking for right now, and keep in mind it's for all sports, not just football. Hopefully this project will gain popularity, but right now I really need help from Husker faithful getting it started. If it works, it has a good chance to become THE place to go for the most in-depth news available, and the best part is that it's provided by all of you good people!

THANKS ALL! GOD BLESS!
