Hello, {insert name here}. I was wondering if you would give StrategyWiki permission to host your {insert name of FAQ} FAQ. StrategyWiki is a freely-licensed wiki which has been making great strides in completing its library of open source game guides. StrategyWiki's pre-existing guide would benefit greatly from your FAQ.

All guides on StrategyWiki are licensed under the GFDL 1.2, so once hosted your guide would be as well. By being hosted on StrategyWiki, your guide is made editable by any registered user, meaning your guide can be improved upon even if you choose to no longer maintain it. Furthermore, because of the nature of MediaWiki-based websites, anyone can upload media and embellish your guide with images (and even video!) which is impossible to replicate in a plain-text medium.

If you are willing to upload/modify the StrategyWiki copy yourself, you are more than welcome to do so. Should the wiki markup language seem foreign, worry not! The StrategyWiki community is filled with helpful people that are willing to assist you in formatting your guide. Of course, StrategyWiki has a guide to editing and formatting if you don't feel like asking someone. We at StrategyWiki strongly believe in protecting individuals' work, and if you do copy your guide from another location, please leave a message stating that it is your work. This helps us maintain a clear list of who has contributed to a guide. You can make a note either in the edit summary when adding the information, or on the talk page.

For a better idea of what a completed guide looks like, check out StrategyWiki's website. In the meantime, let me know of your permission to have your guide transitioned over to StrategyWiki.

Looking forward to your reply,

{your StrategyWiki user name}
