Does anyone else think this category is pointless? -- Scjessey 13:52, 18 Apr 2006 (PDT)

Not Josh. --Pseudonymous 21:19, 18 Apr 2006 (PDT)

Yeah, I noticed that. I just think it is a pretty vague category, because it sets up article names that consist of questions (which are ugly), instead of a more structured approach. Usability studies have shown that the drill-down approach is better for users, combined with a search facility (which the wiki already has). -- Scjessey 04:56, 19 Apr 2006 (PDT)

Question...

Are we supposed to ad questions to the faq to get them answered? or do we ask somewhere/somehow else?

You should ask questions in the forum, or by filing a support ticket. -- Scjessey 07:41, 11 March 2007 (PDT)

Deletion proposal (June 3, 2007)

I propose the deletion of this article for the following reasons:

• Nearly all articles in this category exist in other similar categories already.
• The information in the article itself is uncategorized.
• In my opinion, cleaning up the page would not rectify the haphazard way in which it links to and is linked from other categories.

Agreed. I've always thought this category was a silly idea, and guaranteed to provoke the spread of questions that should be confined to the customer forum and support system. We should make sure all articles within the category are properly categorized elsewhere before deletion. -- Scjessey 09:17, 3 June 2007 (PDT)
