**Using footnotes is closely related to using citation templates & I could do this too, but these pages already exist in one form or another... again, feedback appreciated.--[[User:Ling.Nut|Ling.Nut]] 23:54, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

** There already exists a page about the assessment system, although it needs a bit more of fleshing out: see [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide/WikiProject#Assessment]].

*Haven't done anything yet, but I'm considering writing a tutorial on writing tutorials - a guide on expository form, structure of a tutorial, and example creation. This project will be amusing in its recursivity, and that's why I want to do it, but I think it'll be a real help to this program if there's a guide to making tutorials! :) [[User:Nihiltres|Nihiltres]] 00:26, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

*Currently writing a guide to Wikicode, just to make it less scary to new users.
