| TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Andy | Jason Malinowski (aka JMan), Dan Englender, and myself have been working on setting up a MediaWiki for TI Calculators, initialy just for the 83+ family, called WikiTI (pronounced WIH-kih-tee). We currently have some information up, but we're also counting on you to contribute what you know. Please note that we do NOT want any BASIC information. As with most, if not all, wikis, anyone can contribute.
Before you go running to put stuff up, please read the Guidelines for contributing. Anything not following those guidelines will be deleted or edited. If you have any questions, leave a message on either JMan's or my talk page. | | 26 Mar 2005, 19:53 GMT |

 | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | BullFrog | What's the ultimate goal with this project? Having something similar to Wikipedia but focused on calculators?

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Andy | | We want to bring all the documentation the community has made together in one place. There are many, many forums out there with documentation on them, in dozens of threads each. When you're looking for something, that's a pain to do. This project should make it easier to find what you're looking for, once we get enough information put into it. | | 26 Mar 2005, 20:32 GMT |

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | allynfolksjr | | Ah, I've heard about this project, and I'm excited, because the community has been needing (and asking) for something like this for a long time, especially with the staff heading this, we should see a great resource for programming and such. | | 26 Mar 2005, 20:31 GMT |

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Kevin | This is discrimination. NO BASIC Allowed??? You know the TI community is made of ASM AND BASIC programmers, not only ASM, so maybe you should add a BASIC section too (separate from the ASM section of course). Other than that, good job.

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Kevin | at least for undocumented BASIC tricks

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Andy | | Well, we *might* expand to BASIC later. Again, we just don't want to waste time getting everything skeletoned out if no one is going to use it.
Here's a way to make us want to do that quicker: Have a bunch of people put a message on JMan's and my own Talk pages (links in the article). | | 27 Mar 2005, 07:34 GMT |

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | BullFrog | Umm, I imagine a good portion of the TI Community members are BASIC programmers. I guess it's your choice if you want to single them out...

| | | Re: TI Calculator Wiki Announced | Andy | | We did this specifically with the intent to document all of the *ASM* calls, RAM areas, etc. We are not "singling them out", we're simply not documenting BASIC. | | 29 Mar 2005, 07:14 GMT |
