SWIM's noticed why some bees are having troubles finding things...these things which bees are looking for are mostly hidden along with 1000's of other documents, how would a newbee know to search 'schedule safrole' in a search engine especially if that newbee doesn't know much about the internet and how to format searches to get the best results?
I have read every single chemistry post at the Hive posted during the five years we have existed, so I know what is in the archives and what is not. I never rate anything as UTFSE if it isn't common knowledge among bees or if the answer can be found at my page. The answers to UTFSE-rated questions can in almost all cases be answered by typing the question verbatim into TFSE, as it has been asked hundreds of times before.
Searching for information and digging through a whole lot of other material is what learning is all about. And while searching in the archives for something rated as UTFSE, the newbee with inadvertently read other useful things that is good to know. Well over half of the things I know comes from finding "other interesting stuff" while I was actually searching for someting else.
We cannot spoon-feed everyone that comes here - sometimes I and other members makes the life of newbees a little easier by writing FAQ's and synthesis compilations (all of this without pay).
And regarding bad searching skills - if they are as bad as the newbee not being able to find the desired information using the first couple of keywords that comes to mind, then this is an excellent opportunity to learn how to search. People in the scientific field who cannot use a seach engine nowadays are doomed to failure anyway, so why are we supposed to prolong the suffering of those until their ultimate demise?
