I appreciate this may not be of interest to many in this group, but a certain cohort has been extremely helpful in assisting me to get the prototype Memorial Guns wiki up and running and helping to clarify thoughts about data conversion and editing.
So I thought I would post a copy of a document I have developed which describes the conversion and editing environment.
The WIKI is a cloud-based shared resource but will undergo editing by potentially many users.
All feedback is appreciated.

Thank you for sharing.
I don’t have the slightest interest in artillery, but I’ve very much enjoyed watching your development of this project!
Best of luck!
@Scott_Sauyet , when I started this project I felt similar. But as I understood the historical aspect of these guns, my interest grew. It is amazing that you could walk past a gun memorial and not realise this gun is a relic of the Crimean War or that an officer in charge of it in battle won a Victoria Cross or that it was salvaged and repurposed off a wreck of James Cook’s voyage up the east coast of Australia. Since then, my understanding of the role of war memorials has changed and I don’t mean those large edifices but the smaller local ones remembering local contributions.
