This is a place for people who add material to the Wiki.

You can find some general guidelines in the Help:Contents page.

We should be focusing on two things right now:

• Create a basic structure for the Wiki, with "stubs" (short articles which invite people to add more to them) for sections/pages where we still lack any significant content.

• Finish a few high-quality sections/pages which other contributors can be inspired by and copy. This is important since we need to develop some form of common standard and understanding of how this Wiki should "look and feel", how we write references, equations, links etc.

The intention is that we should launch the Wiki publicly by the end of October (which year depends on us ;-)

What's in the works

You who do significant additions to the Wiki, please add some information about your work, plans and progress here so that others can see what you are working on and perhaps help, monitor, come with suggestions and most importantly, be inspired by.

• I've started work on creating a first best-practise guide. I think we need some sort of first example for how one of these should look. Writing this type of guide is not easy though. I chose to start with a guide for turbomachinery CFD since that is the application area that I know most about. So far I've only created a table of contents and written a few sections. What do you think about it? --Jola 08:09, 8 September 2005 (MDT)

• I have written a fairly comprehensive description of a turbulence model - see the Baldwin-Lomax model page. I think that this is a fairly good example of how we should write this type of page about a certain model. Or what do you think? --Jola 08:09, 8 September 2005 (MDT)

What needs to be done

• Someone needs to focus on the numerics section and create some form of basic structue and perhaps write a few articles there. So far the numerics section is completely empty. --Jola 08:13, 8 September 2005 (MDT)
