Two Minor Suggestions

2013-05-26 11:31:03 am

1) Should the user profiles of all admins include information about what their respective responsibilities are in case they have non-general ones? I'm asking because of point two, which is a minor issue that I could well have sent to one of the admins, who in turn may or may not have had to send it over to another admin.

2) Should these two pages be merged? It seems only the "Contents" help page has anything on it, but what is on it is three (helpful) links that relate to wiki editing. The first one is accessed through the editing page so people will look there hopeful for such links.

Not a walrus

There's enough crossover that it really doesn't hurt to send it to the "wrong" green name, like you said the worst that will happen is that it gets forwarded to somebody else.

Can't speak for 2), though.

i don't really see myself as dictating how the kb should be laid out. maybe i can break deadlocks if editing wars start or something. on the other hand discussion pages on the kb or forum threads are good places to ask questions like this one so the people who actually work on/use the kb can weigh in.

this one seems like kind of a no-brainer though.

Uh yes. I didn't fully realize the nature of wikis, not being used to editing them. So I could basically do that myself or at least start a discussion on it...

Also sorry for making the title of this post a bit vague, I realize everybody's gonna come read this now Smiley

SDA Apprentice -- (3-1)

When you spend enough time on SDA, you pretty much can onto which admin does what fairly well. Of course if you are new to the site, it can be tricky, but like what UA said, Worst case scenario is that you get redirected to the right Admin who can help you better.
