<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Jim,<br>
<br>
I just had a read through your Writer Guide and think it reads
well. My only suggestions would be:<br>
<br>
1) Reword the updating pages sections for "Significant page edits"
and "Preview reviewing" as they seem a little contradictory. e.g.
If a new user wants to make a significant edit, do they go ahead
and make it and email Docboard with "Page Update" or make a User
Space copy and email docboard with "Review Request"<br>
<br>
2) Maybe a mini guide on how to make a User Space copy? I wrote
the below for a new user a little while ago which might be useful.<br>

<br>
3) Make the Stye Guidelines and templates links more visible and
with a more detailed description (it might be worth sticking the
links into the welcome section as well just to draw people's
attention to it)<br>
e.g.<br>
<br>
Style, templates and translations<br>
<br>
Style guidelines: Information about general formatting, structure
and links to editing documentation.<br>
Templates: Examples of wiki code used to indicate buttons, menu
options, wiki formatting elements.<br>
<br>

To all bf-docboard members:<br>
<br>
There is a draft of an updated version of the Writer Guide in
User:Sculptorjim/Writer_Guide, which I hope provides improved
guidance to writers and potential writers. Comments and
suggestions for improvement welcome; I plan put it up in two
or three days (before the Conference) so please respond
promptly.<br>
<br>
