I usually check in to the Suggested Topics page once a day or so, and keep the place pretty well cleared out. People make suggestions in the suggest-a-page area, but the suggestions don’t “go live” on wkiHow, until an admin signs off on them. Now that I am being logged out every time I close a browser, I am falling behind. If anyone would like to accept or reject one or two suggestions on this page, that would help. I think only admins can get in. http://www.wikihow.com/Special:ManageSuggestedTopics
Obviously we want to accept suggestions for useful topics not already covered by wikiHow. I tend to reject anything which would result in the creation of a duplicate article. I also usually go ahead and reject anything which is not phrased as a title (some people just post a noun—but a noun will never make a good title, and we can’t know what they are really wanting). I also tend to nix anything having to do with “be like” or “sing like” or what have you, as well as overly long titles (Tell my mom I don’t want to go to Costa Rica because I don’t want to miss my cousin’s play, for example). There is probably an article about how to manage the suggested titles somewhere. Here is the link to the list. http://www.wikihow.com/Special:ManageSuggestedTopics

Thanks for the tips KnowItSome! I’ve done a few, but there are still more to go. There is an article on it here
, and it is also open to New Article Boosters too, I believe.
Thanks for those links. This should help.
Is this Nabbers only? The page isn’t available to me.

@Davecrosby
It shouldn’t be. What do you see when you try to access the page? Sounds like a bug.
