Dear Monks,

The language of the question asked should be very easy. Question should be easily understandable. If required we can re-format the titles and the questions. We dont' need Obfuscation in question asking. It should be very simple. Creation of a special node via experienced monks to simplify the question would be a great service.

It will help all of us.

It will also propagate, a simpler way of looking at our problem, which will help besides understanding someone else's problem. May be it will define a standardization and a better level of looking at the problem from our 'internal' perspective in general.

It will advocate many others to ponder over the questions and learn more from the monastery and offer to the monastery if those questions are presented in simpler way.

Titles are very important part. I see many titles which dosn't serve any meaning to me. Example Alternate ways to loop over input (was: I think this is a simple one...) or How do I execute a shell command against each file in a directory and it's subdirectories? (was: looking for a quickie). In the long term, example.. via supersearch all the useful information presented via this node is lost. In that respect, If we have meditation index or sopw index, just like snippets index by grinder, that would be very valuable.

Some random thoughts

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
