OK - I think that I'm done with a first pass at this. A couple of observations:

1. The namespacing turns out to be more important than I previously thought. If you do a search on the wiki, you get results from *all* categories including other frequent flyer programs. It could get ugly. The only thing that we may consider is dropping the parentheses so that constructing URLs would be easier when posting:

Current Format: http://www.flyertalk.com/wiki/index....asics_%28AA%29

Without the parentheses:

http://www.flyertalk.com/wiki/index....gram_Basics_AA

Thoughts?

2. I've started a FAQ with links to the Challenge and Award Rules articles. Both of those articles now contain links to the Stickies in the forums. Does that format make sense for everyone? Should we go even further and unsticky those two threads and replace it with a "Welcome" sticky that points people to the Wiki and goes over general posting etiquette?

3. Any suggestions for more FAQs? Or does anyone have any ideas of threads that have established some crucial facts that we should turn into an article?

Please review the changes that I've made and edit mercilessly....
