Could we have an AHII Wiki forum?  With tutorials and such?

Hitech Creations introduces AHWiki
Today we are happy to announce the opening of a new wiki, a community driven collaborative encyclopedia, called AHWiki. AHWiki is an information source for all that is Aces High, plus many related subjects like aviation and military history, and everything inbetween.
Getting started is as simple as logging in, using your Aces High II bulletin board ID and password (your game ID and password will not work!). If you just want to browse and read, then you do not need to log in. Logging in allows you to edit and add content to AHWiki.
We are excited about the possibilites this tool brings to our information exchange base and look forward to it growing.
To find AHWiki, look in the "Community" menu listing above.

I have read the above before, thank you.

What I am asking is for tutorials on how to, for example; Make a Squad Bio page.  The code used, tips etc, etc.

AHWiki (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) is the place to look for that kind of information... not the forums.

For specific information on creating a squad page, see the Squad page guidelines (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/AHWiki:Squad_page_guidelines).

Wikis are inherently better than forums for tutorials and other useful, centralised, often-accessed information.  So check the wiki itself for wiki help (Help:Contents (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Help:Contents) or you can refer to the MediaWiki help (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents) for more detailed editing tips) - and also check the wiki for tutorials on other things (Terrain Editor (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Terrain_Editor), etc etc).
