  • Check your disclaimer wording against the general Disclaimers at the page bottom.
  • I'd make the wording a little less strict:
From: If so, you'll need to read Guide For Contributors which will give you the information you need.
To: If so, take a look at the Guide For Contributors which will help you get started.
  • Delete Our lawyers want us to mention

Suggest there be a combined "About finiki" box that includes "Welcome" and "Disclaimer". This can be set up as a new box. --Shakespeare 15:54, 14 December 2011 (MST)

Would a finiki'fied version on these articles encourage more involvement? I'll take a swing at creating finiki versions tomorrow morning for consideration. --Peculiar Investor 23:00, 3 February 2012 (MST)
