Thread: Wiki the Miata

  1. #1

    Default Wiki the Miata

    The current Wikipedia article on the Miata isn't very good. Linkie. The pictures of the NA and NB are horrible, the text is stiff and uninteresting, and there is just generally a lack of flair and "pop" to the whole presentation.

    Since Wiki articles can be edited by anyone, I think we should take it upon ourselves to slowly edit the Miata's Wiki entry and improve it. More and more people are relying on Wikipedia as a source of information. Here's an interesting article on its growing influence.

    Are we up for the challenge? There is no time limit, and it requires no commitment from anyone beyond checking the site and fixing the things you think should be fixed. C'mon! The Miata deserves better than this:

    It only goes to show when people can no longer discriminate on the grounds of race, religion, or sexual orientation, they can improvise and still find someone to hate. - Dave Moulton

    Pay attention. This is supposed to be a collaborative effort, but if all you're going to do is take cheap shots from the peanut gallery then forget it.

    Easy breezy, lemon squeezy... chill.

    I was just being silly. No need to lose your cool. Here, as a peace offering, you can use photos of my BUR anytime for the ol' Wiki article.
