I recently finished editing my contribution to the "Swaps" section. I hope others will edit or add to it. At the very least, it should shed some light on the topic leading newbies to research other sources. (though I have yet to put links to outside pages in article) I am too am not a writer/mechanic, though I have given lots of thought to the topic, and have done some reading in that regard. (And believe it or not, I actually put a lot of time into writing the article!) In theory, a Wiki can be a useful set of web pages. As Tom has pointed out, other people may edit/contribute. Of course it takes people to read the pages for this to happen. I can't help but think that this may take some time. Hopefully not too long though.
