Probably a good idea, but absolutely belongs in #About This Message Board and not buried in this thread. We have a partial FAQ for the board in ATMB. We don’t have a general one I guess. > [@Beginner's Guide to Glossary of Terms on Straight Dope Message Boards](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/beginners-guide-to-glossary-of-terms-on-straight-dope-message-boards/307442): > > There are a number of terms commonly used on the Straight Dope Message Boards, that are basically “in-jokes” or references. There are several threads listing such, I have tried to compile them all into one post here. If anyone has additions or corrections, please email me – I’m going to keep this locked, so it doesn’t become too long and rambling, but remains fairly focused and easy to use. I have taken these descriptions from various threads and posts by various members. This thread isn’t upda… We do maintain one for “How to Moderate on Discourse”. @engineer_comp_geek started it and we’ve both added to it. It is pretty helpful. One in general besides the glossary would probably be handy. Especially as much of the Glossary is somewhat dated. There was one for computer questions, that was unpinned as it was so dated. Maybe start the discussion in #About This Message Board and mention what you think belongs there. I think a link to [Discourse New User Tips and Tricks](https://blog.discourse.org/2016/12/discourse-new-user-tips-and-tricks/) should be prominent. * * * * * * There use to be an easy shortcut to all the keyboard shortcuts. That disappeared in one of the Discourse updates. **Apparently Shift? does the trick.** --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-were-you-thinking/991532)._
