Jun 9, 2014 at 15:42 comment added blunders Also, just to be clear, I completely agree with your point, but the reality is that as a solution to the issue, using the current tour & help pages appears to have issues implementation wise.
Jun 9, 2014 at 15:42 comment added blunders @BHF: Ah, I see, that makes a bit more sense, and is inline with the feedback you posted in chat too. For others, I'd just restate that the content that you're referencing as being a duplicate is hard, if not impossible to edit, since that content appears to at the very least require much more effort to create, edit, delete than content on EarthScience.Meta; meaning the content is in some cases global to all SE sites, or requires a mod to edit.
Jun 9, 2014 at 15:11 comment added BHF @blunders: My intended vote was "duplicate" - but that did not work with the links provided.
Jun 9, 2014 at 14:28 comment added blunders @Casey: It want to make it clear that I don't know the answer, your efforts are actionable, and very possible that in the end, this is the best way to welcome users, just feels to me like there might be a better solution.
Jun 9, 2014 at 14:21 comment added blunders @BHF: Not sure that "off-topic" is a valid reason to close the question given the content of the question is meta-related content. I am voting to close based on the question (really it's more of an answer) being "too broad" since it to me "there are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs." That said, I do feel welcoming new users is important, a valid question, and one that should be addressed as a question, not as an answer.

Jun 9, 2014 at 0:26 comment added senshin @BHF The tour is useful, but very brief, and lacks information about markdown and stuff. The help center has all this information, but split over dozens of pages. This, I think, is a good compromise between the two; it's certainly worked quite well for the people over at TeX - LaTeX.
