Making a Wiki for NRO is genius! It took me a while to catch up with a lot

May I suggest, however, that you have some sort of safeguard in it. When
you’ve had it up long enough to identify some of your best contributors,
make them moderators so that malicious liberals can’t sabotage the project.
Just a thought.
