My original idea was to focus on the work of American pipe makers as part of the AmericanPipeMakers.info [http://AmericanPipeMakers.info] effort. But I think as long as pipe maker bios and other information is organized such that it is easy to access information by maker, country of origen, materials used, handmade versus factory made, price, it could and should include information on all pipes.
Obviously, as with any wiki, this will be what it is in terms of the interests of the contributors. '''''Pipedia''''' has the potential to be a great resource--constantly evolving with historical and current information about the entire scope of the World of tobacco pipes.

What do you think we should strive to do with Pipedia?

Obviously, as with any wiki, this will be what it is in terms of the interests of the contributors. Pipedia has the potential to be a great resource--constantly evolving with historical and current information about the entire scope of the World of tobacco pipes.

Problem: For some reason session data is being lost. You can't stay logged in unless you have checked the "remember me on this computer" box at login. Otherwise, as soon as you change pages your login is dropped. For now it is possible to edit pages and save the edits without logging in, and then logging in to upload the images called for in the pages. This is apparently because the php session data for the wiki is not being written to the files as it should be. I have to get this figured out, but I'm working on it. Meanwhile, if you'd like to contribute, you can do so anonymously. S.E. Thile [1].
