RE: Dialogs

I would, but I honestly only made my first ever dialog this past week! It will take me a while to understand how they work. The best I could do right now is import some data from VectorBoson's tute (which is the only reference I've found), assuming he gives permission. --Ceeeb 12:43, 2 May 2007 (CEST)

Actually, that's the best time to start a tutorial.

At that point you can still relate to the issues that will stump other beginners. You still remember the things that were the biggest hurdles when trying to figure out some new concept.

The more "esoteric" aspects you can always add later, but I would always think that it's most important to explain the concepts to beginners, so that they have a chance to get a foot in the door, and then continue making their own discoveries.

Unfortunately, I'm pretty swamped with other stuff right now, otherwise I'd help out. But perhaps in a few weeks... --Kronzky 16:11, 2 May 2007 (CEST)

I'll definitely re-read the stuff and add correctionsetc, if needed. --raedor 18:15, 2 May 2007 (CEST)

Either way, I suggest we begin outlining the major concepts and topic layout elsewhere, e.g. Collaborations/Dialogs (Work in Progress) and move it to Dialogs once we reach a certain degree of quality. The reason why I want to begin this outside of the actual article page is because we can get all edgy and scratchy there and refine information presentation, before we throw our work at the masses. -- Manny 18:45, 2 May 2007 (CEST)

"Just do it." :) --raedor 18:55, 2 May 2007 (CEST)

And doing it I will! But not today, I'm afraid. I'll try to begin after this weekend. -- Manny 19:03, 2 May 2007 (CEST)
