Thanks Harry

Hi Harry, I'm Donny, I submitted PattayaWiki, thanks for clearing up the categories, I am new to Wikis and wasn't sure whether or not to go for a scattergun approach - obviously I got it wrong, sorry about that. I have now checked out other Wikis categorized here as "Places" and am getting a better idea of what is appropriate.

The main guy behind the Pattaya Wiki is Pete who has been running the PattayaTalk.com forum for about a decade - it's an excellent forum with a lot of knowledgeable regulars. I suggested a wiki because I noticed how a lot of excellent contributions were submerging over time and the same questions were being asked again and again; veteran users were becoming antagonistic towards newbies who apparently didn't know how to use the search feature. I had never run a wiki but am a heavy Wikipedia user and am convinced that, if we can dig out all the wisdom that has been shared over the years in forum and refashion it for the wiki, it will be an extremely useful resource.

I believe that the subject matter is legitimate and, as more and more people relocate or retire to Thailand, it is important that they be informed not only of the highlights but also the pitfalls.
