Web browser: --- Bug #: 29923 Summary: Install Q&A system at help.en.wikipedia.org Product: Wikimedia Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: Site requests AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: kol...@seznam.cz Classification: Unclassified I think there is a need for a user-generated help system like for instance help.openstreetmap.org is. The rules of English Wikipedia are a big barier in acquiring of new users and editors. New users are not familiar with wiki interface and there is no "easy" place where they could ask something (if they are not at least so tech savvy to leave a note on a discussion page, usualy without a signature). Opening an easy interface for help will be a big benefit for English Wikipedia. Incorporate the Q&A system in SUL. Open source software should be used (OSQA, Pligg etc.). The HELP site over at OpenStreetMap is a big success so far I think. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
