What's Missing on the S-A?

We have around 1800 people here, so I was hoping to get some ideas -
Basically, as everyone knows the "SamuraiWiki" is dedicated to
anything and everything Japan prior to the 20th century, as well as
other history related things - so what sort of articles do YOU want to
see that isn't up there already?

I appreciate any feedback! And if anyone wants to WRITE something,
join the SamuraiWiki Editor's group, and let me know:

I for once would like to see detail information on costuming.

To ask a question, may be a moments shame,
but not to ask and remain ignorant, is a life long shame.

Hmm. Could you be more specific?

Sure can, I have seen a lot of material with patterns and pictures, but when
it comes to putting things together, I always encounter the problem of is
this thing folded over or under the obi, it is open all the way from the top to
the bottom, and so on. All I am saying that yes, I stink at sewing to begin
with (I am a guy)and is hard to look at patterns and pictures and try to put
something together, whether is a Yoroi, or a Hitatare or any of the other
fancy court garbs with out a "baby" steps guide..

Humbly,
Sukeie
