I want to know the communities opinions on wetherwhether or not I should ask and then answer questions that I have the answer to, aren't on the site yet, are appropriate to the site, and, often times, have seen asked repeatedly elsewhere.

Examples would be "Are theirthere any sites to help easily make Saga Edition NPCs?" or "In exalted, what is Paranoia combat?" or "What are some sites one could use to generate Traveller maps?"

I'm hesitant to do so because other I've read other questions which referred to seemingly similar things as seeding and discouraged it. On the other hand, the questions I'd be asking are real questions, somebody, at some point, really did want to know them (meaning that even if I haven't seen others ask them, I did spend hours trying to answer them on my own); moreover, they are generally about under represented systems, meaning that putting them up could better bring in a more diverse crowd.

Question about asking and then answering questions currently not up

I want to know the communities opinions on wether or not I should ask and then answer questions that I have the answer to, aren't on the site yet, are appropriate to the site, and, often times, have seen asked repeatedly elsewhere.

Examples would be "Are their any sites to help easily make Saga Edition NPCs?" or "In exalted, what is Paranoia combat?" or "What are some sites one could use to generate Traveller maps?"
