Wikipedia:Tip of the day/March 28

Ask intelligent questions

When asking a question about editing Wikipedia at the Teahouse or Help desk, please include all the facts needed to answer your question - especially the page title you're enquiring about. Most respondents will assume you are editing in 'desktop' view, and are using Source Editor, not Visual Editor (VE). So remember to say if you're working on a mobile or using VE.

Always give context to any question. At the Reference desk, for example, don't ask "who was president in 1900?" without mentioning the country you're interested in! This prevents volunteers helpers having to ask follow-up questions before providing answers. Friendly reminder: the Teahouse (for new editors) and Help desk are for questions on how to use or edit Wikipedia; the Reference desk is for questions about anything else (real world questions).
