I wrote something on this earlier: Two things: 1) content first!. "me too" "this was very helpful" is no _real_ content. 2) subjective opinions make the thing more friendly. I liked to join a community where people help each other, these "thanks for the great tip, saved tons of typing"-messages are very kind. My conclusion: delete them and establish a new and fresh tone on the wiki. A rating system can replace the "i like that tip"-messages. > I've tried to put my opinions in a brief yet informative way, so others > can make up their minds on what to do.

Title_guidelines is long and hard to read, if you have not a lot of time. Comment_guidelines is very good. So is Discussion_guidelines. All in all great job John :-) especially to use several small pages, each for one topic, thats easy to extend/maintain. I wrote a page "Guidelines" as a starting point for all these. I'd like to see a quick reference, something one can skim quickly. Do we have something like that already? In the beginnig i did something on these things, but i forgot what :-) > Ipkiss has done a lot of editing recently, and I'm hoping he will offer > an opinion on the guidelines.

Great, is (s)he on the list already? Sebastian. _______________________________________________ Vim-l mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wikia.com/mailman/listinfo/vim-l
