New FAQ Plan[edit]

The goals of this new system are:

  1. Make FAQs visible in mobile views for reading. (FAQ editing on mobile is neither included nor excluded as a possibility.)
  2. Allow editors to include the text of a single question+answer within an active discussion for reference.

These are the planned system of templates:

  • {{FAQ item}} - Structured record of consensus on a frequently asked question or frequently discussed topic.
  • {{subst:new FAQ}} - Create a new {{FAQ item}}. Also used as a drop-in replacement to convert older {{FAQ row}}s.
  • {{pin FAQ}} - Placed at the top of a talk-space page to pin the FAQ to the top of the discussion area.
  • {{see FAQ|x}} - Includes text of a specific question and answer in a discussion.

Templates: subst:new FAQ     FAQ item     pin FAQ     see FAQ
Example: User:N8wilson/FAQ on talk page: User talk:N8wilson
