I'll post it again below (slightly amended), then I'll leave this topic alone.<br>
<br>
<span class="swb">I have something to say on this point number 2:<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">"2. Cancel your wiki and encourage those fresh faces to further improve the Arch one and discourage learned helplessness.</span>"<br>
<br>
It is my understanding that one of the prime considerations concerning
the content of the Manjaro wiki, is that it be written in a fashion
that new GNU/Linux users can understand. The ArchWiki is not written in
that fashion, it expects the user to have some experience with GNU/Linux
& also to know how to search for anything that they don't know
about a topic, be the search within their wiki (where it is policy not
to duplicate information) or elsewhere.<br>
<br>
If I went over to the
ArchWiki, using my wiki editing privileges there & started
rewriting their pages to suit those who are new to GNU/Linux, I would
have my work removed & I would be chastised.<br>
<br>
There exists no common ground in this regard. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);">"and discourage learned helplessness</span>"
is the kind of statement that I would expect from someone who has no
compassion for those less knowledgeable, skilled & experienced than
themselves. It is "that" all too common heartless attitude that turned
me off Arch in the first place. That attitude which is held by some in the Arch community is, I think
their biggest failing. <br>
<br>
I'll add that such an attitude is not held by the majority over there, but it is unfortunately too common</span>.<br>
<br>
Anyway, that's it for me on this one. Thank you all for all of your hard work in making Manjaro what it is. :)<br>
