I think that's getting way too inclusive and tedious... look. Example
problem:

1. I get to SkSp, oh noes, toilet is clogged and there is no plunger~!
2. I shut off the valve behind the toilet and check first if anyone knows
how to fix. I determine I need a plunger.
3. I email admin@, cc discuss@ to say the toilet is clogged and I don't
have a plunger and wondering if anyone can help?
4. Nobody responds/is able to help, so because I have no money I ask
admin@if I can use donation box money to buy a plunger. They say yes.
I go do
that. Or, I go buy it myself and skip asking admin@.
5. I/Someone fixes the problem and then I email admin@, cc discuss@ and say
the problem has been fixed.

Boom, done, next!
