We need a Noob-friendly jargon busting intro to Freespace and HLP.
Firesteel:
This is more a knossos thing but where are patch notes for mods posted now? The threads attached to mod pages in knossos take you to the OP of the release thread. Is it even possible to auto link patch posts in a release thread? For example the link on Derelict takes you to the 3.7 release thread from 2013 though there was a compatibility patch for it last week (?).
Steam's patch note support is pretty spotty since it's up to individual devs to deal with it (which is what it is here too) but having some more organization on that front might be useful since we're trying to get new blood in here. It's more overhead for everyone but I do think it'd be good for the amount of work added, but that could just be the project manager/CS teacher in me talking.
Nightmare:
What about writing a guide about HLP/FS forum memes? There's already a trivia/acronym page on the wiki, which could be extended to mods as well. Spoiler warning and possibly black text is required too.

I started the Facebook page years ago. It still gets new members weekly. #Ididsomething

This is cool. (: Glad to see more people stepping up to help out and especially try to smooth things out between groups.
Nightmare:
Here are the sites I referred to:
http://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/Various_Terms
http://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/FreeSpace_Trivia
In particular the first could be interesting.
As for references to projects, it might be also reasonable to have it that way; I mean you might have heard of Jedis, the Force or the Death Star even when you know nothing about SW, and it might encourage people to find it out themselves - hopefully.
