I think a website would be more suited for this project.

Anyone want to pioneer a site?

You could always add any techniques you like to the
BrickWiki
building
techniques category. As it’s a wiki, it can be edited by anyone, including
you!

Hi Ross,
As you know I’ve contributed/supported BrickWiki from the very beginning in
every ways I could. I still hope it will encounter more audience than it has
today (both for the contributors and readers part of the audience). I hope this
thread will help this way :-)...but until now, I’m disappointed it hasn’t
fullfilled is goal :-(.
And I think people would also enjoy (at least as a reader I prefer) an off-line
and unique document rather than a on-line website.
In both cases, the more difficult part of the job is to collect and to gather
informations spreaded on various websites’ articles and forums, so I encourage
people to duplicate their findings to BrickWiki. (to contribute Brickwiki is
almost as simple as copy / paste).

Didier,
I completely agree with this statement. I think online resources are awesome,
but I, at least, don’t build in front of my computer. Having an off-line
document like this that pulls everything together will easily find it’s way to
my building area.

I also prefer offline documents but I would rather download a small
single-technique .pdf file than a large book of techniques when I just want to
to try one particular thing.
The ultimate would be a set of BrickWiki articles each with a corresponding .pdf
version and a single compilation of all currently available .pdf files on the
subject for those who like to download everything at once.

Not good enough. Wishing is no excuse for not promoting a site you claim to
believe in. I did a quick search to get some context on the history of this
wiki, and there are many roffles to be had, but
this thread basically tells
you all you need to know. My feelings can most accurately be summed up in the
following image macro:
This thread is now about strategies for promoting Brickwiki. Go!

Didier already includes links to Brickwiki in his PDF document, that’s good.
But as much as it needs promotion, Brickwiki needs contributors too.
Unfortunately most people would rather use the information than add to it (human
nature), but I would encourage anyone that knows of a building technique not yet
covered there to add it.
Or any other LEGO-related subject for that matter.

The brickwiki (or the trains bit anyway) is linked from the .trains sidebar and
for its first year or so had a bigger mention higher up the page too.
