Hi, why is it complicated? Please write to me on my talk page, thanks.
Sorry to edit your page. I can't find any other way to reply. This is one simple example of complexity. Most of the Guidelines should be comprehensive on one or two pages. In Wikipedia, it is kind of (too much )drill down mechanism and once you start drilling down, you loose sight of what you actually are looking for. In simple terms, assume a instruction manual, it has index of contents and the details ( In a PDF). So its easier to pick what topics you want to work with and get back to index if needed. Its comprehensive. I have spent 20 days trying to understand Wikipedia guidelines to edit a document and still am very confused. Webclient101 (talk) 18:03, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes Sir, I have started for that page. Personally Guidelines are very complicated and inter-twined. But it can just be me ... Webclient101 (talk)
