John,
I don't know much about TikiWiki, but I suppose any wiki program will work
just fine. The one I wanted to use is Media Wiki
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki
It is PHP/MySQL based, and is the same one used by Wikipedia. I have been
told that it is the most full-featured wiki program out there, although
somewhat more complex to use than some. My son who is a programmer set up
a media wiki about a year ago, and he indicates that it took him about 2
hours of his time to configure it.

I just remembered that a friend of mine designed a gopher logo for me
several years ago that was never used for anything. Please see how you
like this rendition of the varmint:
http://www.sonic.net/~tcopley/gopher.jpg
I am willing to donate it to the cause. BTW the artists name is Adam
Capell <adam@capell.com>.

okay, maybe I'd better register gopherpedia.org up before someone else
grabs this awesome handle. ;-)
