Here's the index...
http://forum.photics.com/doku.php?do=index&id=guildwars
I think the system here is actually the best around. You only need one user ID for both the Wiki and the forum. The Wiki is based off of DokuWiki, which has a higher rating at "opensourcecms"...

DokuWiki

MediaWiki

DokuWiki is the highest rated wiki listed there. If it looks like this system is underpowered, it's probably because we're still learning how to use it. ;)
The Photics.com GuildWarsWiki started because users complained about the former Skill Listing Thread. There was no way to sort the thread alphabetically. It was very confusing to see which skills were already posted. Because there were hundreds of skills, it was difficult to find useful information. Yet, users wanted to post their findings. The pundokuwiki was implemented as a way to resolve that problem. It's working out nicely. The additional content was added because the community itself wanted to add it. I was only looking to add an organized skill listing.

I further urge that you focus these efforts on ours, or consider changing the format of your own so that we are compatable. Otherwise, the entire community is shortchanged, and neither wiki will ever be what it could.

What do mean change the format? :/
I don't see what's wrong with our Wiki. Actually, I think our wiki is pretty awesome. :D
If you want to join our Wiki, you're welcome to join our volunteer project. Yet, I'd rather you and your team continue with your own. I think you should make better use of your energy. Instead of telling me to join your Wiki - which is not going to happen - why not write to Gaile Gray and get your website listed on the community page? Why not get your fansite the popularity it needs to be a better Guild Wars Wiki. Why not familiarize yourself with the terms of the fansite program and then take your website to the next level?
In the meantime, we're slowly turning those red links into green links. :D
