Getting My Wiki On!

Wikis have grown to become a big part of how we obtain our information. When actor Heath Ledger died it first became public knowledge when someone changed his Wikipedia page to include a death date. People slowly started to share the news until finally an official announcement from the family was given. Wikis allow us to access wide range of knowledge from a wide range of topics. In deciding what to write about you have to spend some serious time deciding how you want to add your own expertise to the wiki universe. 

One topic example of how to write a Wiki is,  "How to be successfully be a Buffalo sports fan." You might be asking yourself how do I plan on writing a wiki about this topic? Well as most of us know,  there is a lot that goes on to being a sports fan for this town. There is obviously a lot of yelling and a lot of different emotions. There are traditions we have that are a must to supporting our local teams.  You have to be able to accept a lot of changes and a world full of heartache.This topic would be a lot of fun to write about and also very comedic. 

Second example of a good Wiki topic would be, " How to keep your tattoos looking fresh and new."  This topic would be good nowadays because tattoos are common among people. People want to know how to keep them looking good and fresh.  You could research and find several ways to keep your tattoos from fading and keep them looking bright and like new. No one wants to spend tons of money to put something on their body and not properly take care of it. People want there tattoos to look good even if its been years since they got the tattoo. 

Finally a third topic is a recipe "How to make a Peasants breakfast." A Peasants breakfast is similar of slop plate of vegetables, home-fries, cheese and meat. You could walk through the proper way to prep for the meal and take them step by step through how to properly make this delicious breakfast. Peasants breakfasts consist of peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, your choice of meat, potatoes and cheese finally topped off with egg. It is a twist on a traditional breakfast and people would love to try something new at home to eat. 

These are three really good ideas that are not already done. They all seem like they would benefit a wide array of people and could be a lot of fun to write. You can use these as creative foundation to  choosing one and getting your Wiki on!
