Posting Problems
Becoming a problem collection was not the original purpose of Sensei's Library, unlike GoProblems. Still, it is an acceptable use of the wiki, and a few conventions have arisen. Generally, the problem is presented on one page, as in Kanazawa problem 1. The solution, if you choose to present it from the beginning, is generally placed on a sub-page, as at the same problem. Other sub-pages, such as hints or failed attempts may also exist. The person who posts the problem doesn't need to create the attempts page, though either he or another deshi might edit it later, to improve it.
