I'm brand new to DF. What made me totally dorfs out over this game is the incredible level of detail and countless combinations of interactions.  I'm only on my second fortress and have already come across so many questions that were only answered by insanely old posts,  some from over a decade ago. They were still highly relevant to my issues and part of me felt I was doing a disservice to future dorfs by not posting any solutions or other relevant info I discovered.  It may be years from now, but someone else in the same situation will find it useful one day.
Hear hear! We should make a relevant thread list...
I shall do that... In a bit

We should make a relevant thread list...
The result is likely to be massive. :P

Edit: On the other hand, threads with SPOILERed tidbits grouped under categories like "jobs", "military", etc, might be a great idea. That is, however, what the wiki is for; and it's difficult to draw the line between "newbie-friendly" and otherwise (especially if several people contribute to such a thing).

The amount of malice in this thread is actually causing me some concern. I mean, chaining up mothers and forcing them to breed, just so we can drown their children to harvest their organs? Does this strike no one else as absolutely horrific?
You misspelled 'hilarious'

If there is information in old threads which is useful and informative I support making sure it gets added to the dfwiki.
