The civility thread has got me thinking, but I didn't want to hijack it, so here we go. This idea isn't fully formed, so forgive me.
I was going through wikipedia, when I came across a newer editors talk page. S/he had several speedy deletion templates, and obvisouly didn't know what xe was doing when it came to creating articles (xe was making test-type articles, so copy-and-pasting WP:FIRSTARTICLE, stuff like that), but for whatever reason, xe wasn't going to ask for help. I came up with the idea that maybe we can rename the "New Contributors' help page" to "Request for assistance for new editors". Not that it's already used enough already, but maybe this will make it more well-used. At the very least, we can maybe add to huggle something that says "This new editor needs help fitting into wikipedia. Can anyone help him/her?" Of course, while thinking about this, I forgot to help the editor who got me thinking about it!
