Hey Guys - I see that Ron posted some of the "sticky" links in the forum admin notes, but for others, in case some semantic clarification is helpful, I think I called the forum admin notes "wiki stickies" once as that's what we sometimes call them internally, but I should draw the distinction between admin notes and wikis. Below is the forum admin note that was placed on the Forum Help and Feedback forum here
http://www.hometheaterforum.com/forum/list/11 :
I should refer to them exclusively as "Admin Notes" or whatever you'd like to avoid confusion in the future.
The purpose of the admin notes is to envelop and extend "sticky thread" functionality. With admin notes, you can add textual context, images, links to a specific post within a thread, other links that aren't just threads (reviews, wikis, etc.), make announcements, e.g.
http://www.hometheaterforum.com/forum/list/119
Or you can just stick threads that you want to call out:
http://www.hometheaterforum.com/forum/list/23
I think one thing that I did say at one point is that many formerly sticky threads do in fact make for great wikis because often with "sticky threads" there is how to content in them and often with how-to content one user has to consistently go back and add others feedback and suggestions, whereas with a wiki, users can collaborate and discuss together.
I hope that clarifies things somewhat - I'm subscribed to this thread and will check back in. Thanks Sam,
