 GoPlett is a community portal/wiki for Plettenberg Bay, allowing members of the community to easily share information.
-GoPlett was started as a personal project, but it has since become too time consuming for the author to keep everything updated. So, I've decided to use some handy CMS (Content Management Software) to make things easier. After doing quite a bit of research, i finally settled on MediaWiki.
-Wiki's put a lot of power and trust in the hands of site visitors, since anyone can edit writable pages! While vandalism does occur occasionally, wiki's have been extremely successful overall. For example, see [http://wikipedia.org/ Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia].
-They also have a very good page on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights copyrights]. Please read this information if you are unsure as to what you can legally post on this site.
-I really hope this works!
-Be sure to read the copyright information ( [[Project:Copyrights]] ) before submitting anything!
-Kind Regards
