What This Wiki is All About
Collaborative effort is the order of the day in today's networked environment. And Wikis are a powerful tool in collating and updating collective knowledge through peer collaboration. Each one of us is a repository of knowledge and experience, but this treasury remains locked inside our minds for eternity. Besides, during the course of our work or leisure related reading and browsing we gather a lot of information. Most of that also remains within narrow confines of the immediate users. This Wiki is aimed at capturing a portion of that treasure for the benefit of many.
The Aim
To create a dynamic repository of knowledge relating to matters of interest to army men, veterans, defence buffs, enthusiasts, researchers and laymen.
Methodology
Most of us would be familiar with Wikipedia. This Wiki is powered by the same powerful software engine that drives it. A basic outline of topics has been created on the Contents page. Please feel free to contribute to any topic of your interest, and to add fresh topics by editing the Contents page itself. Familiarise yourself with How to Edit - you will be surprised how easily and quickly you can start editing and writing new pages without any prior knowledge of doing so. Unlike Wikipedia, it is mandatory to register before editing this Wiki, so remember to Register and Log in before you get going.
