Hi All,
I have neglected my girlfriend a bit tonight and done some work on the wiki hopefully it’s worth it .

I have added tables to the main list page with some useful summary info as tumasgt suggested which I think will be very useful. Also added a column indicating if more info is needed so at this stage we can all see what we need to populate at this early point. Changed to internal links (thanks tumnasgt for doing this on another page)
The individual mod template is updated so a user can put in all their relevant info about a mod in a single simple table. We can put in cost, duration of mod, efficiency benefit (proven or unproven improvement) and link to instructional page or detailed testing results

Weather spotter I update the rear wheel skirts page, put the template in with some info from the normal ecomodder efficiency modification list and I moved your great page on how you did the mod and your results and put a link in the rear wheel skirt page to yours in a table with a summary of your results. I figure if more people put in data about their mod we will be able to easily go down the table in a particular mod page see what efficiency improvements people have gotten, what it costed them and look at how several people have achieved a particular mod. I entered in the mpg before and after based on your results on your page but I may have read the table wrong so feel free to update this summary with any changes or more info.

I have also set up another thread for discussions on change suggestions for the main mod list page so hopefully we get a bit of discussion about new ideas or additions to the list in this thread
http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ons-14289.html

So I encourage everyone to start populating some pages with any info they know about. I will put the blank template in each link hopefully make it easier for people to add their data.
I guess if we don’t see much activity updating data from others ill be tempted to go through some of the threads and put info gained from threads onto the wiki as a starting point. I figure once there is a bit of data in the wiki people will go there more often and then update it more themselves.

Thanks to weather spotter and tumasgt for already making wiki updates its only been a few days and we already have some good info on the wiki.

Of course any more suggestions on how to arrange the wiki are most welcome
