      Idea: include wiki page in Forum Post (wiki/forum integration)

      I would love to be able to include a wiki entry in a forum post. (not a link, but the actual text of the entry).
      It would be great for answering support questions.
      It would be great for people to contribute to wiki articles as well.
      You could start off a forum thread with the first post being a wiki article and ideally people could click [Edit] *right in the forums* and they would be taken to the wiki to edit that page !
      How's that for cool ? Therefore wiki entries get all the buzz of the forums ... and have all the organization of the wiki - best of both worlds.

      This would be a great ongoing way to recruit users to EDIT and make wiki pages.
      Getting people to make wiki entries is much harder than getting people to post.
      This will help get rid of this major problem in wikis - too few editors !

      example:
      Q: How do I add text to the bottom of pages ?
      A:

      no IMG tags !

      Usage: Say you figured out a key problem regarding a new Plugin that requires the latest version of PHP. After the entire support problem was figured out ... the admin could add this to the product wiki ... but they dont have time.

      However, The admin could create a like to a new empty and say ...

      http://www.vaultwiki.org/pages/Demo:...edit&section=2

      Please add this information to the wiki. Thanks, The staff.

      And maybe even tag it with a "todowiki" tag so people could find things admins wanted to add to the wiki.
