Help talk:Found a problem?

"If you read an article and find a problem" – maybe also "If you did not found the needed topic (article)..." --Boris Tsirelson 07:31, 4 January 2011 (EST)

Sounds good to me; I'll put something in the page to that effect.

Do you think it would be worthwhile putting a link to Help:Found a problem? from the search page (Special:Search)?—Thomas Larsen (talk) 20:50, 4 January 2011 (EST)

Why not?

Also something like this: Before starting a new article please check the existing related articles. For example, before starting "Atom" note that we have Atom (science). --Boris Tsirelson 03:38, 5 January 2011 (EST)

Okay, I've added a notice to the header that is displayed to users who are about to create a page. For example, visit This is a non-existent article and click Edit; you'll see the following: "Before you create this page, please make sure that a similar page does not already exist under a different name by searching the wiki." Is that about right?—Thomas Larsen (talk) 04:28, 5 January 2011 (EST)

Nice. --Boris Tsirelson 04:40, 5 January 2011 (EST)
