*Last night, I was talking to TK and I mentioned the possible idea of a tutoring system for new sysops or editors. I know this isn't really the appropriate page to bring this up, but it's a possible solution. I know Wikipedia does it. [[User:MountainDew|MountainDew]] 19:59, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

::I once had the motivation for something like that (and I still occasionally got the drive back, like in [[Conservapedia:Footnotes - technical help]]). Even these days, I try to help where I find calls for help, but it's relatively thankless work in many cases.
::On-topic: I think the first step for that would be to compile a list of open questions. We have some sysops who need a few pointers for sysop tools, and we got some sysops who need a full-scale "MediaWiki 101". It will be impossible to write a help without a starting point. --[[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]] 20:08, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

:TK, I'm disappointed. I thought I helped you often enough for you to avoid such broad statements. --[[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]] 20:08, 10 April 2007 (EDT)
Maybe eventually the field of thistles will be burned to grow anew. [[User:MountainDew|MountainDew]] 20:02, 10 April 2007 (EDT)
