I completely agree with Larry Wang. I'd also add that if you see my question herehere you'll see a good example of what he is talking about. I lacked the correct name, and my guesses as to what would be correct approach were off. If you want to answer with a link to a wiki page, go ahead, but I'm not sure the question should be closed. Besides, going out of our way to close a question that is simple, but otherwise within our scope is more trouble than it is worth. Closing questions should be reserved for questions beyond our scope or that are otherwise unredeemable.
