Hi ... I'm an electrical engineer with many years of experience owning and operating electric vehicles (EVs), and I am extremely familiar with the EV charging station market. I'm looking for a place to start documenting how to repair EV charging hardware, and Repair.Wiki looks like a good place for me to build up that data set, given the RPG organization behind it.

I have been editing procedures and whatnot into online hypertext documentation systems since before the term "wiki" was applied to them :) So I am familiar with wiki editing basics and how to structure information. But it may take me a while to learn the specific practices here, such as page styles or templates. The worst case would be for me to invest a lot of time into building up this documentation, only to have my work irretrievably deleted because I unknowingly violated a policy. Please reach out if I do anything blatantly wrong.

I do have some questions, and probably will have to take them to Discord* at some point. But if an admin sees this and wants to reach out, that would be great!

Q1: What kind of backup and restoral practices does RPG have in place for this wiki -- what happens if a server gets nuked, or if someone goes nuts on edits and you want to roll back says 6 hours?

Q2: How's your uptime? Pretty much 24/7, or does it go down for hours at a time for whatever reason?

Q3: Reading your FAQ, I believe that if I donate to your 501c3, then I am directly supporting your operations including this wiki, right?

Q4: I'm getting a double hCaptcha prompt on every edit I do, which really slows me down especially when it's a really quick edit (e.g. typo fix). As I gain credibility here, will that drop back to just one prompt or even zero?

Q5: The guidelines say I should add a mfg / model table using the "Edit Semantics" action at the top of the editor, but I don't see that.

Q6: Possibly related, is there a way to have pages automatically display navigation to the higher level page? (e.g. model page shows link to manufacturer page at top, and even link to higher "section" page). For now I will manually edit those in.

Thanks!

* I've managed to get this far in life without a Discord account (I'm not a gamer) and honestly would like to continue ...
