 * What Wikia staff should be spending its time on is creating "How to" guides for new editors that are written in plain, simple, straight-forward language and accompanied by " Do this A and you get this B " examples -- and that don't assume that the proficiency of a wiki user is anything more than basic.

Hear hear!

Many of the help pages are too confusing for new users, and it's hard to actually find needed help.

Additionally, I recently contacted Wikia Staff asking about something on a help page that wasn't working, they told me it was out of date, but didn't update the help page.
