@AnnonomusPenguin I saw the status update on the question about updating the tour & help center -- thanks! The tour looks much better now. (Maybe that meta question doesn't need to stay featured?) But I noticed that the on-topic page in the help center is very sparse -- was it that way before? It doesn't contain an on-topic list, just two paragraphs saying "look around" and "you could try other sites" (paraphrases). It's also weird that it's not the first link under "asking". Odd.

@MonicaCellio yes, that is indeed the default
 
@AnnonomusPenguin wow. I guess I've never paid attention to this early in a beta before. Um, can we beef it up, then? At least including the "ask about" list from the tour?
I don't know its history, but (for comparison) here is that page on Writers.
Oh wait, I do know its history. Oops. :-)
Well, sort of. Most of that was in version 1, which was created by Laura in 2013, which was a couple years after the site went into beta. So this must've been imported from the FAQ that predated the help center. Some of that text (like the "this is not a forum" part) sure looks like SE boilerplate, but I don't actually know. Anyway... the help-center stubs have obviously undergone some evolution since then.

@MonicaCellio to be perfectly honest it is Writers so it should be decently long :)
Beefing it up is on my todo list but there are only so many hours in a day
 
@AnnonomusPenguin fair enough. :-) I reached for a beta I'm familiar with. :-)
@AnnonomusPenguin no reason it has to be entirely on you. Want help from the meta-verse?
And, err, sorry if my recent pushing on site things is causing any mod stress; not the intention!

@MonicaCellio for the stress: nah, I have a too full Trello board anyways. But it could also generate content...
> How do I deal with a user that is stressing me out?!?!?!?!!!
:P

"Community Building" doesn't exist in the data explorer. Instead it is still listed as "Moderators" Other (seemingly) related issues: Meta posts don't load from mobile apps Meta post oneboxes look different and are missing elements Post/comments don't onebox in chat
