Put it after 5.1

After "How do I submit an article"? When people will be mathematically certain to submit comments before they ever submit an article?

I have to say that I don't like the FAQ as it stands - the entire thing strikes me as patronizing and hostile. I'll contribute, but I'm not going to be happy about it.

I mean, do whatever makes sense. It's our FAQ we can do what we want to. If something doesn't work we can change it.

I don't like the recent edit either. If you can make it less patronizing and hostile, do!

I'll see when I can scrape together enough motivation to tackle it - looking at it is leaving me rather frustrated, as I implied.

I've edited one of the subsections to make it less patronizing.

I agree - a definite improvement.

In retrospect: yeah, that's the right place. Added.
