The wiki is another one of those things I hope to contribute to... if and/or when I find the time.
I would be happy if everyone who is reading wiki will find 10' a week to fix typos, and report issues or propose improvements, if nowhere else it would be fine on this list, just make laud subject Wiki.
The article is a good idea; perhaps a title with a broader scope could be: "How to get help".
How to get help is to some extent described in: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Support and that is where you land when click on Support in a left sidebar. Of course there is no perfection in wiki pages, that is not exemption.
In that sense it could be an article explaining what search engines, forums, and mailing lists are for (and what they are not for!), and how to use them for best results.
We have have covered almost all and that is linked under Contact in the mentioned left sidebar: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Communication_channels This particular page needs fine tuning. I did some changes last November, but that was just to improve readability (more lists, lesser inline links).
The main purpose it to help experienced users recognize what new openSUSE users don't and can't know, and vice versa.
New year's resolution for me: put some time into openSUSE documentation. But now, I'm off to join the family chitchat.
Enjoy it, and happy New Year 1012 :)
With the opportunity -- and at risk of hijacking a thread, in which case I beg you forgive me -- let me wish everyone on the list a happy ending of 2011, and a prosperous new year 2012.
