I've written FAQs for internet service providers, online libraries, giant web communities, and small personal websites.
You might be able to prepare one-off, specialized FAQs for local events or organizations.
You can also make some FAQs in the form of handouts for when you're doing outreach or to go along with a certain piece or technology.
Most popular CMSs have plug-ins for "knowledge management" or FAQs that can be adapted for your purposes.
When a FAQ file is chosen, the system iterates through the QA pairs in the file, comparing each against the user's question and computing a score.
As the example in figures 1 and 2 shows, interaction with FAQ FINDER OCCURS in a series of stages.
For the first stage of processing, FAQ FINDER uses standard information-retrieval technology, the public-domain SMART information-retrieval system (Buckley 1985), to perform the initial step of narrowing the focus to a small subset of the FAQ files.
The second stage of processing in FAQ FINDER is a question-matching process.
With Wiki Strats, site users can create their own content from scratch using a simple text-formatting system to input codes, FAQs and strategies directly into a game page known as a "wiki.
The FAQ is searchable by category and keyword and is available on the BEA Web site <www.
