The wiki would not be where it is now without the community and the many submitted photographs and information for all those articles.

Info/mission/History
A wiki, yes it should be a wiki for Filofax-models. It was in November 2013 that I started a thread in the german Filomaniac-Forum asking for a webpage which could help a newbie like me in researching information about Filofax-models. Models listed on eBay with sometimes really bad pictures, no names and no further information at all where hard to identify and I was hoping for pages assisting me in the research on those models. It did not take long to realize that there are no webpages like that and this sparked an idea. Since the community has so many Filofax-models, could we start a page like that? Could we get them all together? We could at least start to collect as much as we know ... so I set up a wiki.
After tossing around many ideas and working out the details I published the first pages in February 2014 listing mostly my own Filofaxes and 14 weeks later on the 9th of June I added the 100th model. A collection of photos and information about every Filofax-model ever built, that is the mission of the filowiki (http://filowiki.robert-mayr.com/).
Collecting information about each model to the best of my knowledge, I also got requests on listing rather subjective information. Getting away from pure data storage to include things that really matter, like how is this binder in real life? How will the material age? What is so special about this model? This is the reason I started adding sections like: experience, ageing, highlights and family-shots to the articles where I got hold of information like that.
- experience to include how people might use this binder and how they think about it. http://filowiki.robert-mayr.com/index.php?title=Hamilton_Personal#experience
- ageing to include examples of how the material might age

- highlights to include the most striking features of some binders. http://filowiki.robert-mayr.com/index.php?title=Cavendish_Personal#highlight
- family-shots to showcase how the different colours or sizes of a model compare

The wiki would not be where it is now without the community and the many submitted photographs and information for all those articles. But nothing is free of errors and there are still many models missing in the wiki, so if you have any photos of models or colours which are not already listed or find any errors I'd be happy if you could send them to me at filowiki@robert-mayr.com
