While this isn't for me personally, for various reasons, I can see that it is an important part of railway modelling for many others and is a skill well worth aquiring. Weathering also applies to things other than rolling stock of course, buildings for example.

It would assist obviously finding everyones current project activity. But in a month or two that activity will decline.
Providing it is relatively easy for your to move the existing threads to its own section and then return them to its current lineside section.
There is a relatively large amount of material building up already in postings. Some postings are obviusly contain duplicated advice some posting are not relevant.
It would make more sense for a member to review the material in March and create a single source of advice and possible a single source of members before and after shots.
Not necessarily all the photos or advice in between but perhaps link to the individual members threads for further study by an interested reader.
A problem with a lot of forums is finding what you want. A lot of time can be spent looking through a thread for that nugget of gold.

Whether weathering is the correct term for this all embracing subject could be debated, as strictly speaking some of the effects are not weathering at all - eg adding shading and depth or highlights to paintwork. Maybe a section which covers "adding realism to your model" would be better and weathering could be one of many topics in this section.

It should include rolling stock, buildings and road vehicles, but not track which should be retained in the track section.

I've looked for weathering hints and tips on several other forums and even using their search engines found it difficult to find.

Ove time, it will creat an excellent reference section avoiding trying to remember who did what and in what section.
