Not clear on "contains instructions"

Latest comment: 15 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

I'm trying to help clean up for project Oregon but am new to this. I saw the "contains instructions" tag on this article, read through the article, and need some help determining what's considered instructions here. If all that material about trail conditions and hazards is instructions and should be removed, then there's almost nothing left in the article. If that's the case, what should go in an article about a trail like this? Sylvia A (talk) 05:11, 18 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

The how-to content was minimal and reasonably subtle. I took care of it—I think. The how-to tag's text needs improvement, but The purpose of Wikipedia is to present facts, not to teach subject matter is close. An article should not say "do this" or "don't do that". It should just say "this exists" or "that happened." Is that clearer? —EncMstr (talk) 05:23, 18 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yep, thanks. Sylvia A (talk) 00:01, 22 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
