| Oct 12, 2011 at 21:46 | comment | added | Zypher Mod | In addition to what Zoredache has said, I would also suggest reading through a tech writing book, it is a completely different style of writing. This is the book I have in my library: amazon.com/Technical-Writing-Principles-Strategies-Readings/dp/… | |

Quote the rewritten question & mark it as an example.

| Oct 12, 2011 at 18:44 | comment | added | Chris S | +1 The most frequent problem I see (haven't read newmanth's posts) is Questioners with Verbal Diarrhea. You're not writing a novel. Stick to the concise facts (and make sure they're there): What is broke, what is it [not] doing, expected resolution. Feelings, pleadings, salutations, closings/signatures, or thanks should not be a part of it. | |
| Oct 12, 2011 at 17:04 | comment | added | Zoredache | Not sure if you saw my edits, but I have suggested a different version of your group policy question. If it is correct, and you think it is better, you might want to update your question on the site. | |

| Oct 12, 2011 at 16:54 | comment | added | newmanth | Thanks... I think part of the problem is that I've been listing my actions thus far at the end of my questions... it may be better for me to try to front load that information. T | |
