Simply channeling the manual, turning stuff into "Did you know...?" questions is something else again. (Likewise, cannibalizing Emacs questions from other sites, IMO.) Questions should indicate that some research was done first, and should be closable otherwise. That criterion is fairly common on SE, AFAICT. This Emacs site should be as demanding as SO wrt showing some up-front effort ("What have you tried?". | |
