Thread:Project talk:New contributors/Greeters/Ideas when thinking how to fix 'Find a greeter'/reply (5)

Please excuse my greenness :) But if you are interested, here are my first thoughts on HOWTO:

A quick tour of the meanings and role of each of the tabs at the top of a typical page would be nice. (Main page, discussion, edit, history, etc.) Perhaps an explanation of the setup for a user (what a talk page is) could fit into this. It wasn't immediately clear to me what the "talk" buttons were all about. Also, an overview of the different parts of the *wiki* world and roles each one plays would help me feel more grounded.

I imagine all these resources exist (perhaps in FAQ?), so perhaps it's just a matter of linking them early and often.
