→Introduction
I've been working on OrthodoxWiki pretty much since it was a little over a month old, consisting of just the [[Main Page]], a collection of red links, and perhaps a sketched article or two, back in [http://orthodoxwiki.org/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=223 December of 2004]. I'm not an expert on wiki-software, nor am I a saint, nor am I much of anything at all. Nor am I in charge! But I do claim to have at least a little knowledge on what seems to work here (which is of course worth just as much as you paid for it). I am also one of the sysops, but not [[User:FrJohn|The Man]].
In most senses, this essay is something of a rant, but let me assure you that it's a good-natured rant whose purpose is essentially to expose my own philosophy of what works best in putting together a collaborative Internet encyclopedia of Orthodox Christianity, the strengths and particular genius which continues continue to make OrthodoxWiki the only site of its kind.
So, to get things going in this bit of text, let's start with what is, in my mind, most important, namely, stuff that OrthodoxWiki isn't.
