**What would you like done?**
We’d like to see a new category setting that when enabled causes all new topics to be wiki topics by default. This is a minimum part of [this topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-setting-new-topics-are-wiki-by-default/16618). The `make wiki` action should happen regardless of the user’s trust level, bypassing site settings for `min trust to edit wiki post` and `min trust to allow self wiki`.
Some additional notes:
1. This should not modify or work around the existing wiki site settings. The `make wiki` action should be done by `System`, not the user making the post.
2. There does not need to be an edit log for the `make wiki` action, but having a log isn’t a problem.
3. Users whose trust level is less than `min trust to edit wiki post` can edit their own wiki posts they created, but still cannot edit other wiki posts even in a wiki category - exactly how wiki editing works now.
The new settings page would look something like this (highlighting for screenshot emphasis only):
**When do you need it done?**
We’d like to see this done within a month’s time, with a hard deadline of January 6.
**What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?**
Negotiable. Please PM with an offer if interested.
