Just had a thought as I read a few of the Primers... it'd be great if there'd b a section of vinocellar where all the primers were allocated to so people wouldn't have to look very hard for a search.

If you'd like, create a post with links to all the different primers. I'll pin it in the Wine Learning Center.

It can be updated as needed. I can post links to it on the front page as well..

Great idea DJH.

I wasn't sure the Primer Index would work, but I must admit it's quite useful. That was a great idea!

Adiliegro's recent posts in "Wine Learning Center" got me thinking about a "wine basics index", just like the Primer thing, so newbies (or even experienced winos) could easily find basic information and we wouldn't have to go through the same questions every once in a while. Something with "serving temperature", "leftover wine", "decanting", "definition of some terms" (like backward/forward, closed, dumb, etc.) and so on. It could be a pinned thread or a section in the homepage. How about that?

I think it's a great idea.

If you'd like to form a post with the beginner's basics, I will pin it to the top.

Call it what you like... but maybe "Wine Beginner Primers" is good ?

Maybe "Readme.1st"

I was doing it when I realised I was going to place a link for every thread in the "100% Wine Related Discussions" ... I mean, there is so much useful stuff here! Now I'm editing it to have only the basic information.
