I just reviewed them and I don't see any that were deleted, the one on varieties should be since it's quite obsolete, and I don't see any major chages in ones that were here before but I do see several that were uploaded by Tamara who is the Moderator here.

Tamara, when I list them and indicate that some of yours I feel are incomplete I think it's fair to say that you did try to recruit some folks and I guess no one did, and I certainly didn't b'c I was heavily involved with the addition of all the ones you see that were uploaded by Paul and have the list of user names indicating who helped with each FAQ. And that was a serious and long process that I wouldn't wish on anyone b/c of the need for the inclusion of everyone ( see below).

What happened was back in maybe 1999 or 2000 the participants here decided that some new FAQ's should be done. No one volunteered to coordinate, so I did. So first we made a list of the FAQ's we thought needed to be done, then tackled them one by one. We never completed the suggested FAQ's b'c just doing the ones we did took forever.

The major problem was that I'm an egalitarian and wanted input from ALL who were GW members at the time and wanted to help which was also the opinion of most here at the time, while there were a few who wanted the FAQ's to be written by one person, with no input from anyone, and almost all of us did not want to do that at all. Even though at some sites someone will do that so all you get is one person's opinion on various FAQ's.

With that background I'll just go thru them in order:

Det vs indet, that was here when I came

BER, ditto

Varieties, ditto and should be deleted IMO

Blossom Drop, here when I came

Prune, here already, I think

Tomato Pests, maybe here, can't remember, but belongs in that Forum, not here, IMO

Different Leaves, I wrote most and Paul uploaded

Cross pollination, we did that and paul uploaded it

Start From Seed, we did it, uploaded by Paul

Seed Starting II, uploaded by Tamara, new and takes the above to the garden in a somewhat abbreviated manner

Upside down, new, uploaded by Tamara

Cracking, new, uploaded by Tamara and in my opinion is incomplete b'c there are three kinds of splitting, some genetic, some not

Ferts, new, uploaded by Tamara, ditto on incomplete

So that's how I see it and again, when I say incomplete I guess it's my own darn fault for not volunteering to generate a list of new FAQ's to be done and then coordinating the writing of them and uploading.

But not JUST my fault b'c it's clear that none of the participants who read/post here volunteered so Tamara decided to do it herself.

One clarification. Even where I said I wrote most of the leaf one, the final FAQ's that we did here and were uploaded were initially approved, after some serious haggling, LOL, by EVERYONE so that all opinions were taken under consideration in the final form of each uploaded FAQ.
