Here's a useful trick by the way. Click the button 'History' at the top
right side of a page. Then you'll see it's history. Or use direct URI:

Slick ... but not obvious, especially to a wiki rookie.
Perhaps it would make sense to post temporarily a response directing
LWU here (and then remove it after some reasonable period, or after
LWU posts something here)?
How long should we wait?
A couple of weeks should be sufficient, I would think -- or until he
shows up on the user list, whichever comes first.
Also, maybe it would help to add something at the top of Site.FAQ
directing people here if they have questions not appearing on the FAQ?
I added the following as the third question from the top:
Q:##Q: Should I use this site instead of the LyX users' mailing list?
A: No. The LyX users' list and this site complement each other. A good
way to work to ask questions on the users' list, and then later on
document the answers on this site. See [[LyX.Internet Resources]] for
more details about the users' list.
Do you think something more is needed? (Feel free to add something at
the top - I couldn't come up with a good text)
Looks ok to me, charitably assuming that someone reads that far before
posting a question. Since this is the first time it's occurred, I think
what you wrote is fine. If the wiki gets deluged with misplaced
questions, we can consider something more obvious.
Incidentally, the capitalization of the table of contents of the
Site.FAQ page is a bit funky. I thought to edit it, but for the life of
me I can't figure out where the command that inserts the TOC is getting
the entries. (Not just capitalization, either: headings 2 and 4 seem
to have dropped an initial word or two.)
