Questions (and answers): (Help us to help you!)

Good questions tend to get good answers (and vice versa).

BEFORE asking a question, have you:

• taken the tour (< 1 minute)?
• grasped the dba.se Zeitgeist (what's it's all about ~ 15 mins)?
• checked that your question is on-topic (< 1 minute)?

To ask a good question please look here:

• a good witty overview.
• the MVCE - Minimum, Complete and Verifiable Example. See also the Short, Self Contained, Correct (Compilable), Example site.
• for performance queries.
• more helpful ideas here and here.
• the granddaddy of all "How to ask for help" posts by Eric Raymond.

Below here is a Work in Progress!!!!

There are surprisingly few good links on how to answer technical questions - I'll leave the final word on answering to the man who has > 1M points on StackOverflow.
