In my humble opinion, try soliciting this list for both questions
and answers (like the four above, for starters) and someone (you,
for instance) who will take responsibility for editing it into some
semblance of order.  There are good examples and experienced people
out on the Net to advise.

It should be a lot of fun.  Expect some disputes, especially over
boundaries.  Put this in.  Take this out.  Put two spaces after
every period.  ARRGH!
