Why a community run wiki?

Blog posts regularly overwrite previous topics, making reading old blog posts dangerous as they may contain information that has changed. For e.g. tokenomics, timelines and so on

Current support articles also get outdated quickly. There are currently 2:


 * Support.Switcheo.Network
 * Docs.Dem.Exchange

Both are fine but follow up is difficult as effort is mostly prioritised elsewhere. Moreover, the information can be too much for 1 or 2 ppl to constantly go through. Therefore there needs to be constant use of the wiki and a process to flag and remove errors. More eyes to check and a process to review and change information.

Why Fandom?

There are many ways to make a wiki - either through self-hosted wiki software or through hosted services, or ad-supported wiki services. Fandom is chosen as it offers easier setup and unlimited hosting, costs no money, has many fancy features such as version control, collaboration and analytics. Furthermore, fandom is a high google ranking website, this makes google searches easier and helps with marketing. Also has mobile apps.

However, Fandom has ads so that’s a little less ideal. If an ideal wiki pops up, we can shift over.

Objectives:


 * A tool for Self-Service Support
 * To answer FAQs
 * To be able to present the current state of Switcheo and Demex
 * To complement already existing materials
 * To help bots answer L1 queries in telegram or discord by linking to a website with updated answer, rather than having to redo the answers
 * A documentation of the project
 * To document history of the project
 * Assist in governance by providing accurate information
 * To be a pseudo marketing tool - increasing web presence
 * Help Switcheo with SEO by providing backlinks
 * Rank high for keywords like dex, defi, crypto, bitcoin, eth, bsc,and so on
 * Allow marketing to focus on marketing and biz dev

Risks:


 * Risk of wiki getting outdated
 * To mitigate said risks, wikis must be used regularly
 * All sources must be cited (like a normal wiki)
 * Risk of wiki getting abandoned
 * Edit cycles must be sustainable. Weekly should be fine.

There has been several attempts in creating a wiki


 * http://coinwik.org/Switcheo
 * https://en.bitcoinwiki.org/wiki/Switcheo
 * https://dyor-crypto.fandom.com/wiki/Switcheo_Network_(SWTH)

But all of them have been abandoned, which is stating how difficult it is to commit and maintain a wiki alone, without community support.
