 +===== Posting Guidelines =====
 +
 +==== When Asking a Question ====
 +Include your whole question. If you don't know how to do laundry, be specific. A post saying "teach me about laundry" is vague. Some people will assume you know how to use your washing machine. Some people might assume you know nothing. A post that has a body saying something more informative is helpful like: "I just moved out on my own, I've never done laundry a day in my life. How do I work the machine? 'This' is the machine I have where do I put detergent, which settings do I use?" This approach is more likely to get you the correct answer to your question.
 +
 +
 +==== Making an Information Post ====
 +
 +**Make sure the information you're posting is absolutely correct.** If it's anecdotal, say that. Provide sources if possible.
 +
 +**Be ready to answer questions.** Some users might have follow up questions, be prepared to have a little information to provide them.
 +
 +**And provide sources** if you have them. Some people may not respond with questions or, they may read this post much later than when you posted it. Including sources allows the user to find more information on their own.
 +
 +
 +==== When Answering a Question ====
 +
 +If possible provide detailed information and sources. If you're explaining a cleaner to try, explain WHY that cleaner over others. If you're explaining a technique, explain why that's better than other options. If you have sources or an MSDS for certain products, that's even more helpful for the user to find additional information.
