::: I did not know about those. I included the directory of .pdf to illustrate how to download a file from a known directory. The exercise was quite illuminating for my tester. --[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 18:41, 5 December 2011 (EST)

I can see the technical improvement that has been made to [[Getting_Started/Explore#Configuration]]. However please could you review [[User:Inkyfingers/Getting_Started(1)]], which I have adjusted, bearing in mind that my presentation is almost-a-tutorial and tries to avoid links off-site.

: A tutorial is good, but should be entered by choice, as the style is so different. Perhaps the declarative guidance appears and it is followed by a collapsed tutorial section or a link to a section on a separate page of tutorials. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 15:35, 6 December 2011 (EST)

::My model: Switch on, here is the manual. The sane thing to do is to read the manual. In reading on the reader trusts the editor to provide an insightful walk-through. The product is a children's educational tool. An editor is required to provide appropriate content. --[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 04:41, 7 December 2011 (EST)
I have also preferred to avoid hiding links that go off-site. My reasons are to avoid distraction, simplicity, and orientation.

: This can be useful in context, however, the standard wiki style includes a large number of hyperlinks for reader-directed, non linear navigation, best determined by the reader, as is common on [[wikipedia:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] ([[Wikipedia:Wiki#Navigation|described here]]). Within this context, one learns to follow hyperlinks only for a reason, rather than because they have been presented. Within a tutorial, one presumably submits oneself to the navigation of the author, so links that may distract would be carefully chosen. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 15:35, 6 December 2011 (EST)

In my experience well written copy addressed to an eight year old can be understood by most adults and participating children, and easily speed read by an expert.--[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 04:34, 6 December 2011 (EST)
