Howard,

Citizendium is an interesting idea and is a branch/fork off of the code base
that Wikipedia uses (MediaWiki). We actually looked at Citizendium (late in
the game) and did not think it was the way to go for sasCommunity.org.

I agree that a category called FAQ seems inconsistent with the concept of
the wiki. You are correct that is what the Sasopedia part of the site was
intended to address.

So I guess my question for Ron is what is the intent of this category called
FAQ.

Regards,
-donh
