We have added several improvements to the Forum Nokia Wiki I hope you enjoy them.  First we have added a way to rate the articles based on how well it is written by stars and what you feel the target audience is by the circles.  Of course you can’t rate this home page,  I don’t want my feeling hurt.  Just click on the rating you want to vote for the levels.

We have also added improved Editor to the Wiki, it is now a lot easier to create or edit the Wiki pages.  This is a great plug-in for the MediaWiki software that we use. Speaking of MediaWiki we also upgraded to the latest version and patches.

Another new feature is adding links to similar topics from the discussion boards.  If you find an article and want to discuss it you can jump to one of these or create your own with the same title as the article and it will be a link for everyone.

We aren’t done yet so if you see any new features on other Wiki’s that you feel we should add here; let me know.
