The only guide I can give is a generic one (write a question as the question, don't include the answer in the question, etc.), because I don't know how to create a Windows 10 installation media. | |

| Jan 27, 2019 at 8:01 | comment | added | user109256 | Saying "don't give up" to a person who had given up, is rather unkind and shows lack of understanding. Instead of lengthy comments, a meta answer with intention to guide new contributors to write canonical post on SU would be most helpful. | |
| Jan 25, 2019 at 15:48 | comment | added | music2myear | It takes all of us to make a community, but things aren't helped by casting aspersions. @clearkimura all high-point users were low-point users at one point. I remember the frustration of dealing with what I perceived to be slights and bad actors who had more rep than me. It wasn't that many years ago. There are still some SUers I have more problems with than others, but I have worked to have some empathy for them, mostly by assuming the best about them and their interactions. So a) don't give up, b) don't make things worse by assuming the worst about people you don't yet understand. | |

| Jan 23, 2019 at 19:41 | comment | added | fixer1234 | You did a good job of laying this out and getting the ball rolling. Even if you don't pursue it, you deserve a lot of credit for bringing it up and taking it this far. These projects tend to be a "labor of love" because they are a lot of work, and generally start out or become community wikis, so there isn't a rep reward. They're most easily created by subject matter experts, so if you don't feel sufficiently qualified, there's nothing wrong with that. (cont'd) | |

Include post-feedback clarification to reply comment by fixer1234. Some additional text. No changes to my decision.

| Jan 23, 2019 at 10:27 | comment | added | fixer1234 | Outline what you envision in the question and each planned answer in separate posts here. People can react to it and suggest changes, and suggest additional answers to fill out the topic. People can comment on specific parts to volunteer to draft it after the actual question has been posted. | |
| Jan 23, 2019 at 10:26 | comment | added | fixer1234 | A couple of good models for doing this: superuser.com/questions/241817/… and superuser.com/questions/100360/…. I don't use Windows 10, so I can't help much with the content, but would be happy to do what I can in terms of suggesting structuring and editing. One way to get community help is to use answers here as placeholders for the component posts. (cont'd) | |
| Jan 23, 2019 at 10:26 | comment | added | fixer1234 | You gave up too soon. Sometimes Meta questions take awhile for people to see them. Already at +9 (+10/-1), there have been no more downvotes after the initial one, and now at zero close votes. You didn't ask for advice in the question on structuring a canonical thread, and you seemed to have the topic well in hand. That's likely why you didn't get input. People are more likely to react to something you draft. (cont'd) | |
