The mission of this WikiCity is:
- To share up-to-date resources (such as Speechcraft manuals, Table Topics, Evaluation Guides and so on) quickly between clubs.
- To be a forum for individual clubs to promote themselves to each other and to the public at large.
- To provide a place for people to swap information about resources (timing lights), guest speakers, advanced evaluators and whatever else we need
It started as just a District-74 resource. But the original WikiCity creator, Erich Viedge, thought it would be better to have a global WikiCity covering all 200,000 Toastmasters, not just those in southern Africa.
