Initial Feedback Request
[edit]Recent experience with Talk:2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine made it clear some editors overlook/ignore the {{FAQ}} resource at the top. Rather than write the same response over and over, this template is designed to reference existing FAQ answers succinctly. Once moved to the Template namespace, {{SeeFAQ|4}}
for example can reference question 4, linking directly to it on longer FAQ pages. With a little extra markup on the actual /FAQ
page, the question and answer can be transcluded by this template as well. To illustrate, here's an example of what happens when {{SeeFAQ|1}}
is used on this page: Please refer to Q1 of the FAQ.
My hope in introducing this template, is two-fold
- Help more talk page editors become aware of the existence of the FAQ resource and start to check it before posting redundant questions.
- Make it easier for editors that find themselves frequently responding to posts by referencing the FAQ.
You can read complete details at the current user space page for the template: User:N8wilson/SeeFAQ. Comments, questions, suggestions and feedback welcome. --N8 18:45, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
