I have a desire to produce the help pages I wanted before my newbie mind absorbs the unspoken ‘round here. To that end I have begun a “Help” page. I expect there will be more. —¿philoserf? (talk) 20:41, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

subpages

Please take a look at and watch the development of user:Philoserf/sandbox. Like any other page I do not own it so contribute as you might desire, article edits, talk page, whatever makes the page eventually useful to our next newbies.

I do not comprehend the use the subpage types I have discovered. Secrets seems easy enough. It time I will grok the others. I had thought they might be part of a data driven dynamic page but there are too many clearly informational pages for that too be true. I searched for guidance and didn’t really find much. Please take a look at user:Philoserf/sandbox and edit the doc or share knowledge here and I will craft words for the doc. —¿philoserf? (talk) 21:26, 15 June 2020 (EDT)

This looks great. Thanks for doing this. If you want suggestions about text for these, I can write a few things. Otherwise I'll keep an eye on the page for further updates. Tjoneslo (talk) 21:56, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

I invite all edits. I assume you already know I have adopted Wikipedia’s Be Bold. I’ll edit it if I think we can make it better. —¿philoserf? (talk) 22:02, 14 June 2020 (EDT)
