Is it possible to take a forum and import the threads into wikis? We've had an ongoing list in a forum and people are posting to specific topics. Ideally, I would convert all these individual posts into wikis.

You can easily import existing threads as wikis by:
- Moving the threads into a wiki area, OR
- Changing the forum to a wiki area
In either case, you may also want to update your threads for format to distinguish the page from non-wiki pages.
I don't know if VaultWiki would be capable of this but one idea which I suspect alot of vBulletin users would like would be if certain posts could be wiki posts.Quote:

Of course the post would need versioning.
This would be "Wiki-like" editing of posts, not a full blown wiki.
Another option would be if vBulletin articles ( in version 4 ) had wiki-style editing options.
So there would be 3 types of threads
(1) Normal threads
(2) Polls
(3) Wiki threads.
In fact for marketing purposes, I might give it a better name ...
say .... "Wave thread" (ala Google wave) ... and make some way for end users to be able easily go through the iterations of the post.
or maybe just call it a Multi-User Post ?
