"Only move your own question" We're going to have a lot of unclosed questions from people who don't check back after asking. I propose that it's OK to move a question to the Answered section if it's sat there for several days. Also, that answered section should be periodically cleaned and added to some sort of FAQ. &mdash;'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 12:38, 21 Sep 2005 (PDT)

* I would suggest keeping unanswered questions that '''can''' be answered there, but if most people assume they can't, then move them. I also suggest instead of an FAQ, move the answered questions and all comments pertaining to that to an archive page. (Ex. [[Help Desk/Archive 2005]]) Then put a link at the top to the subpages so people can see if their question was already answered. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 13:48, 21 Sep 2005 (PDT)

:: I think that new visitors will be inhibited by anything called "archive" much more than something (even the same thing) called "FAQ". I agree with your other point, though. &mdash;'''[[User:Maven|Maven]]''' <sup>([[User talk:Maven|talk]])</sup> 15:44, 21 Sep 2005 (PDT)
