Well, let's go.
Write here a post with the explanations, etc., with pictures and drawings if it makes sense, when everything is ready (maybe other members still have suggestions for improvement or additions) I copy the post into the knowledgebase.

Actually I would suggest not creating any subheadings yet - better to have any posts all in the same 'knowledgebase' folder until there are enough there that there's a need for subdividing it; and at that point it should be fairly obvious from the content which subheadings are required. I think the problem with creating lots of sub-forums upfront (which I've seen in many other forums) is that often a lot of them end up not even being used, and it becomes really hard to find the posts you want to see...

Have we not got these sections on the main forum page?
Strikes me if we have more headings people will even less inclined to search for info than they are now.

All I ask that we NOT do anything remotely similar to the ridiculously strict and controlled structure of rninetowners.com. That site has become such a farce because of certain moderators� anal retentive sense of control. Almost every post I�ve made there got shuffled to some other obscure thread that made it impossible to find. A forum should serve the needs of the members, not the moderators. Not meant to be a complaint for any of the moderators here. I just don�t want to see another mess like rninetowners.com.
