Hi Abd, welcome to the list.

It appears that you are reading my comments out of context, and are
also misunderstand the intent of a wiki -- it is a *collaborative*
site.  See these links:

 "Why Wiki Works":        http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WhyWikiWorks
 Wiki page on Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki

So ... have you read the entire web page?  What in particular do you
find confusing?  

On every electowiki page there is a tab near the top entitled
"discussion".  If you click there, you can add comments or questions.
I encourage you to do so, after creating a login account, of course.

Finally, note that comments are most welcome when they are well
considered and constructive.
