Not all of use give just search it answers I for one help people when ever I can and if I find an answer for someone I try and wiki it. I think I am in the top 10 or some of people who post stuff to wiki. When ever I see a just search it post I try and find the answer for people. So they don't feel bad about people telling them to search search search. Now if there is an active topic we are posting on that day and they can find the answer they are an idiot.

Back to the point some are making about searching. If 100 people search once, and put the answer up on maemowiki, that's a darned sight more fair than four unpaid volunteers doing it 25 times each.
If this was the official Nokia Internet Tablet Support Forum (tm) then I would expect answers to be provided, but it's not, it's a community website. We are all in this together.

It's not about two separate communities replicating functionality (see the itTSS fallout for that), it's about each website focusing on what it does best and the community using both. In this case, maemo.org is the better wiki, and itT is the better discussion forum.
Why cause more difficulty for users?

Maybe the maemo wiki needs to be syndicated into the itT wiki.
