# ThrillWiki Next.js Development Prompt

## Project Overview
Build a comprehensive theme park and ride database platform using Next.js. ThrillWiki is a community-driven platform where enthusiasts can discover parks, explore rides, share reviews, and contribute to a moderated knowledge base about theme parks worldwide.

## Core Application Domain

### Primary Entities
- **Parks**: Theme parks, amusement parks, water parks with detailed information, locations, operating details
- **Rides**: Individual ride installations with technical specifications, manufacturer details, operational status
- **Companies**: Manufacturers, operators, designers, property owners with different roles
- **Users**: Community members with profiles, preferences, reviews, and top lists
- **Reviews**: User-generated content with ratings, media, and moderation workflow
- **Locations**: Geographic data for parks and rides with PostGIS-style coordinate handling

### Key Relationships
- Parks contain multiple rides and are operated by companies
- Rides belong to parks, have manufacturers/designers, and reference ride models
- Ride models are templates created by manufacturers with technical specifications
- Users create reviews for parks and rides, maintain top lists, have notification preferences
- Companies have multiple roles (manufacturer, operator, designer, property owner)
- All content goes through moderation workflows before publication
