On the Internet

The "FAQ" is an Internet printed convention starting from the specialized confinements of early mailing records from NASA in the mid 1980s. The primary FAQ created more than a few pre-Web years, beginning from 1982 when capacity was costly. On ARPANET's SPACE mailing list, the assumption was that new clients would download filed past messages through FTP. By and by this once in a while occurred, and the clients would in general post inquiries to the mailing list as opposed to looking through its chronicles. Rehashing the "right" answers ended up dull, and conflicted with creating netiquette. A progression of various measures were set up by approximately partnered gatherings of PC framework directors, from normally presented messages on netlib-like question email daemons. The abbreviation FAQ was created somewhere in the range of 1982 and 1985 by Eugene Miya of NASA for the SPACE mailing list.[1] The organization was then gotten on other mailing records and Usenet newsgroups. Presenting recurrence changed on month to month, lastly week after week and day by day over an assortment of mailing records and newsgroups. The primary individual to post a week after week FAQ was Jef Poskanzer to the Usenet net.graphics/comp.graphics newsgroups. Eugene Miya tried different things with the primary every day FAQ.

In the interim, on Usenet, Mark Horton had begun a progression of "Occasional Posts" (PP) which endeavored to address trifling inquiries with suitable answers.[citation needed] Periodic outline messages presented on Usenet newsgroups endeavored to decrease the nonstop reposting of a similar essential inquiries and related wrong answers. On Usenet, posting addresses that were shrouded in a gathering's FAQ came to be viewed as poor netiquette, as it demonstrated that the notice had not done the normal foundation perusing before requesting that others give answers. A few gatherings may have various FAQs on related subjects, or even at least two contending FAQs clarifying a theme from various perspectives.

Another factor on early ARPANET mailing records was individuals making inquiries promising to 'abridge' got answers, at that point either fail to do this or else posting basic links of got answers with zero or restricted quality checking.
