:Writing here is fine, sometimes on Wiki the answer is written on the user page of the person you're responding to, but I always thought it makes much more sense to keep the conversation on one page. Usually you put your reaction directly under the person you're responding to and you indent once more than the person you're responding to. Like DragoonWraith indented once when he responded to me, and I now indent once when responding to you. If you're going to respond to me you indent twice, by putting :: in front of every paragraph, and you place your response under mine. | :Writing here is fine, sometimes on Wiki the answer is written on the user page of the person you're responding to, but I always thought it makes much more sense to keep the conversation on one page.

:Of course we're not going to delete questions that have information that's not already available on the Wiki. Unless it's very specific and the chance that someone will use it again is almost non-existent. There are a whole lot of questions that contain redirects to Wiki pages or dated information. Answered questions with information that's not available yet are tagged and will hopefully become (part of) a Wiki page, before that they're not deleted. | :Of course we're not going to delete questions that have information that's not already available on the Wiki.

:The most helpful thing users can do now is apply [[:Category:Article Tags|article tags]] and add [[Portal:Scripting/Search Terms|search terms]]. If you think the forums are difficult to navigate I'd recommend to spend some time on them. It's not a place to search for information, that's true, but asking questions, answering questions and participating in discussion is probably harder on the Wiki. It's not the place you learn how to mod, but if you're looking for inspiration I'd recommend to search for REQZ in thread titles in the Mods Forums. REQ stands for request, the z is added to make it a four letter word that can be searched for (3 letter words are ignored, like on the Wiki). | :The most helpful thing users can do now is apply [[:Category:Article Tags|article tags]] and add [[Portal:Scripting/Search Terms|search terms]].

:::Anyone can write on the Wiki, but we're going to keep it focused on articles rather than discussions. The main reason for this is that the Questions pop up in search results, and that clogs searches with things that don't really have great answers. It is much better to have actual articles appear in the search results. Therefore, we're going to convert all helpful questions and answers into articles. If you found any particularly useful, you should use the [[:Category: Article Tags|Article Tags]] to let us know! Or you could convert it into an article yourself, if you would like. We welcome input from anyone, so long as they don't mind that they'll be edited too. | |||
:::But specific questions for a specific mod should be on the Forums. Bethesda wants it this way, and so do most of the people who use the Wiki. We had a discussion about this quite a while ago; it's just taken this long to get through everything - we still have a lot to go. | |||
