Return to Question

OK folks, I have a serious case of FAQ envy. Because of This question I took a good long look at the DBA.SE FAQ for the first time since it came out of beta. Compared to what they've done the front page of the ServerFault FAQ is pretty lousy.

I'd like to get some feedback on making our FAQ more like theirs. Specifically:

• What bullet points and tags to we want on our What kind of questions can I ask here? section?
• Let's explicitly steal some of their "But this is NOT the right place to ask about..." ideas. In fact let's steal that whole section!
  (and maybe add a few others -- What else shouldn't people ask about on SF?)

This question is to collect a consensus -- Once we have one I'll either open a new question requesting the changes or accept an answer listing them all and tag this one with faq-updates & feature-request
