  The Bogleheads Forum FAQ

  I am now working on filling in the Bogleheads Forum FAQ.  Thanks to the editors who have already contributed some answers.

  I plan to expand on some of the existing answers, and I welcome other expansions and corrections.  However, I would suggest that any substantial change should be corrected here.

  OK to link to the wiki?

  I wouldn't recommend linking to the wiki yet, as pages are changing quickly, and there is no guarantee that an answer from something like the proposed FAQ will be the same when you posted your reply as when the original poster reads the reply.

  Welcome:New Wiki Member

  I'm here now, and I just added the numerical example you suggested.

  Populating the FAQ on the wiki

  I have included a draft Table of Contents for an FAQ for the discussion board.  At the moment, it's a section of the main FAQ page, but it's probably better as a separate page, and I'll change that later today (it's after midnight as I write this).

  The board FAQ should be a list of questions which come up frequently in the discussion, with answers in one or two paragraphs; it can link to the wiki pages or other articles for more detail.  For example, a board FAQ on tax loss harvesting should just explain what it is and how to do it; the Wiki page would include more details such as a link to the Fairmark page on wash sales and a calculation of the potential benefits.
