I am creating a quiz about Ronald McDonald House Charities, and have plans for some future quizzes about McDonald's. I have looked around for other quizzes that are similar, but the search function was unavailable, and could not find any others by looking through the categories. Where would I put these?

Please pardon me for this Silver. I have another "Where would this go?" type question.

I got this in my mail:
I need some advice about where to place a quiz. If I were to make a quiz about how books are made, general care of books, something to that affect, would it go under General or Literature? Thanks,


I have no clue. Can someone please give me one?

Moonsong, how about in the Business and Industry section of General? There is one quiz there already on Pizza Hut. I assume it's not about the actual food, but about the business, is that correct?
As for the book quiz, it would not go into Literature, I know that. There are a few quizzes on book collecting in the Collectables section of Hobbies, but if the quiz is more on the actual printing aspect, perhaps Industry, in General.

Umm, General doesn't have an Industry section. If the books one is about the occupation of being a printer and/or bookbinder, I'd suggest Occupational Trivia in People.

I looked for that section, and did not see anything about Business and Industry. The closest I can get is maybe under "World" there is a subcategory called "Business World" and then another sub heading called "Corporations". They also have Fiat, GM, Motorola, Napster, Lockheed-Martin, and one or two others. Think that would be a good fit?The quiz on RMH Charities is about the history of RMHC, and the McDonald's ones will also be the history of McD's.

BTW, this is what I see under the heading "General"

I'm sorry, it must have been later than I thought, last night. Yes, it's the Business World section of World that I was referring to, don't ask me how I got it so mixed up, because I don't know!

Once upon a time the Business section was in General, but it shifted to World some little while ago. You weren't so much mixed up, agony, as a little behind the times.
