Last year we had a very successful “FAQ month” during November which launched a large page on the Wiki called the Cider Makers FAQ
The rationale behind it was explained as follows:
FAQ month is during November 2006. The purpose is to concentrate our combined efforts for a shortish period on “barn raising’ to help build and expand the cider makers FAQ ( Frequently Asked Question page(s)). No obligation on anybody, but even if only a few people take part, it could make a big difference and be enjoyable and productive through teamwork.
During the designated month, we can have different people taking on various roles eg
* Ask new questions on the mailing list
* Reply to them
* Copy the most relevant answers onto the FAQ
* Volunteer specialist areas of expertise by posting little bits of knowhow onto the wiki * Go back through the group archives and recover previous good answers and questions
* Formatting, proofreading, correcting and editing wiki pages.
* Learn more about cider making and about collaborating on a wiki FAQ.
* other rolesThe aspiration is that at the end of it we will have a substantially enlarged and more useful cider makers FAQ section available.
In preparation for this year I’ve reorganised the one long FAQ page into a series of pages, so now there are separate pages for
General_cider_making_issues
Fruit Tree Orchards FAQ
Cider Press and fruit pressing FAQ
Fermentation
Alcohol Content
Bottling
Faults and additives_FAQ
Cider making Equipment
Rural_Myths_about_cider_and_cidermaking
each tagged with the category: Cider makers FAQ
also noted some cider pages on jottit.com
