Forum:Trouble shooting Guide

Could a 'basic trouble shooting guide/quick how to do things list' be created 'somewhere' - possibly at Help:Wikia Basics.

Thus, for example:


 * 'How do I switch the clock on?' - 'Follow X'
 * 'How do I redirect to (wiki main page) rather than activity page?' 'Go to Special:Preferences|your personal preferences.'
 * 'How do I include a reference from Wikipedia' 'Use following format.'

etc etc

Links to more information can be provided as required. Jackiespeel 21:52, December 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I heartily concur. (It looks like the first two of those questions were taken from my own questions, one on this Forum and one on your Tea Wiki!) -- BruceG 11:42, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yes - I was just looking around for convenient examples. Jackiespeel 13:35, December 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Such things have been discussed quite a few times with little respons from staff. Category:FAQs is currently your best option to find some answers, and you will have to ask and/ or dig into various wikis to find other information. It needed quite some effort to get them to review the basic helpfiles, and even with them offering to get a drastic change to the looks of community central such a thing has not occured till date, so remains hard to find what you are looking for.



But - *that is the point*. and the quick fix/problem solver/which section to go to next need only cover one stage beyond the basics. 19:10, December 13, 2011 (UTC)
