I came here after being told a bunch of things that the quickstart says that are just stupid. For cleaning up, we should probably move almost all of this detail to the relevant pages. For a QUICK start, I'd recommend using the defaults for everything possible. This would include the word generation, embark location (which is usually pretty decent), and skill/equipment loadout. The other details should come later, or be linked to for those that are curious about these extra details. | I came here after being told a bunch of things that the quickstart says that are just stupid.

Amen to this. I personally, once I get stuff mildly settled, build a second Mason's workshop just so I can have him make doors on repeat, because I'm OCD and like having doors everywhere. Plus it makes the dorfs less pissy when they inevitably start starving. I know I have a tough enough time remembering to make enough BEDS, let alone comfort furnishings. -- [[Special:Contributions/174.21.25.90|174.21.25.90]] 5:57, 9 October 2012 (UTC) | Amen to this.

"When dwarves are idle, it could be because you haven't given them anything to do, or it could be because none of the idle dwarves have been told that they're allowed to do the types of tasks you've designated." It's missing what dwarfs do, when they are idle. I have added some suitable thing in my transscription, but don't want to bring it in without discussing.
