      It's a good idea, but Chris is very occupied with the actual making of SP; that's why there isn't one already. This'd basically be up to us.

        Well, I intended exactly this: If enough people support this idea, I will start to work on it, together with all the users who want to help and without concerning Chris.

          Well, if you lead, I'll follow. I don't know how to set up a wiki, but I can write about SP fine...

            Count me in as well.

                  I'll help if i can. I would probably learn a lot if you would start something since I'm somewhat a newbie. Especially sp3 rc1.

                    The Wiki could be started off with extracts from the FAQ as it stands now; alot of that is written tutorial-style.

                    I'm alright with script, and I've got a pretty good understanding of making vehicles, optimizing models for SP and that kind of thing. I can remember quite a few of the common glitches and how to get around them... the more technical stuff is probably what I can help most with.

                      OK so the it's official. I created the wiki. I called it "SketchyPhysicWiki" to make simple link the plug-in to the wiki. The URL will be http://sketchyphysics.wikia.com. I added this forum as base for the project- I don't think is wrong to place the link.

                        Wait, have you made the Wiki, or are you about to? The link doesn't work, and I can't find it by searching.

                            The link isn't working yet. I will notice to you when my request will be approved by Wikia.

                              Our SP manual is ready- almost empty. Being too little to became a "true" wiki, is now a sub-wiki in The Wikia Scratchpad. His URL is http://scratchpad.wikia.com/wiki/SketchyPhysics_manual.
                              I added one article, about joints, and some index. The rest will be developed in future.

                                Awesome. I've copied across my (brief) descriptions of the versions, and added the download links for RC1. Also fixed a bit of english 😄

                                  This is an awesome idea. I was never much good at documentation. Thanks everyone!

                                    Thats a nice Wiki. The editing system is much better than the one I use at work.

                                    BTW Curbs did an awesome tutorial a while back. Its for 2.0 but it all still applies.

                                      I made two pages for the google-code wiki and if you want me to add them to this new one I will.

                                        Yeah, your pages look good; everyone should contribute whatever they can. I've started to write a couple of the pages, including links to various useful websites.

                                          I could make the first link (http://sketchyphysics.wikia.com) work. It means that we have a complete wiki for SP. So, add the new pages here. I am transferring the old pages to the new wiki. I am sorry if I made some trouble, but is better do it now than in the future.
                                          P.S. In the new wiki we can show a SP LOGO. I don't know if there is already one. If not, is a good chance to start creating one.

                                            Yay! A proper Wiki... I've done a little bit on the new one too. I'm going away on saturday, so I'm getting as much done as I can before then; it'll be nice to see what you guys have come up with once I'm back. And I don't think there's already a logo... how about this:
