On the request page you should include as much information as possible. Obviously glossary requests need little explanation, but tutorial requests need to be as detailed as possible.


In addition, requests should also contain information about where you looked for this information. These requests are expected to be for things that are missing, not things that you are too lazy to find. At least an attempt to find information on your own is expected.
