in thread Give a fish or teach to fish?

I'm not arguing with you. Quite the opposite, I agree with you.

What I'm saying (poorly) is that the top of each page of this site says Q&A. The Information bar on the right includes PerlMonks FAQ, Guide to the Monastery and Perl FAQ.

More than a few posters have never taken the time to look at these resources before posting a question. How do you compel a visitor to the site to read the fabulous FAQ (RTFFAQ?)?

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    The current perlmonks layout is burdened with allot of "nonsense"-data to a new monk.
    That is why people DO NOT find the FAQs they are ACTUALLY looking for.
    This is a bad thing and it MUST BE corrected.
    If not,we risk to permanently and perpetually write the same stuff again and again and again
    instead of just pointing to a source of information(which should in time receive corrections and
    additions).
