As most of you know there is a wiki dedicated to folding@home. The link is on top of this forum.
There is lots of information to be found there about folding, the history of the project, the science behind it, the different clients, the different fahcore's and just about anything else related to the project.
This wiki has been and still is a community driven enterprise, meaning that the content on it is placed there mainly by the same people who you see active here.
Recent additions to the wiki's howto's list include PantherX's pictorial guide for smp2 guide for vista/windows7. Besides holding the various tidbits of odd knowledge about things not always important, the wiki is best used to place content which helps the community like this extended guide. The wiki holds numerous of these pages in regards to the older clients, but there has been a decline in activity on the wiki and recent clients have not been included in the same detailed and thorough manner as the older one's.
Allot of old links are still pointing to folding-community, and allot of the old references are now gone which made the people who were most active on the wiki start a restructure which was well underway until it stagnated. Not enough contributors to restructure and keep adding all the new information which should find it's home on the wiki.
So this thread is a reminder to those who have been around long enough to remember that other forum, and maybe feel they lost some of their history as well. You people can help to prevent even more things to be forgotten or simply not searched in by signing up on the wiki and try to salvage allot of the knowledge from back then. Something other people would never do as well as those who been there.
And, this thread is a pointer to those who might not have been there, but who have used the wiki to look something up in the past. Or, maybe even a new person who has never been there but who was offered help at some stage in the forum by someone who used the wiki as a reference. The wiki is not only maintained by the community, or at least that's something which this thread is aiming to accomplish, it's also most of all ment as a resource to the community.
So I will end this call to arms with a quote which appears on a page someone marked as a work in progress.
Remember, for the Folding Wiki to be successful we need as many people as possible to participate. Don't be shy and don't think every submission must be perfect on the first attempt. One of the great things about the wiki is that you (and in fact everyone) can update, edit and tweak all articles at a later time. It's better to get your thoughts down now and let others expand/improve on them, than to enter nothing at all.
