How about a section on the Forum called "New Users Start Here". We could make a bunch of locked threads with topics that are frequently asked without any ability to add to the posts. Some potential post topics:
"Don't ask Questions search the board first" ... explain how to use google to search the site:stm32duinoforum.com/forum"
"Which board to buy" ...
"Which core should I use" ...
"My USB Serial smells funny" ....
etc...
Idea for new forum section

Re: Idea for new forum section
Sounds good to me.
I thought the wiki was intended to provide that kind of information, but seems that people reaches the forum faster than the wiki, so that may help reduce clutter.

People don't seem to know the wiki exists.

One more : "What to choose if there are several options".
Example : What Stepper motor driver to choose for project?
And the article contains several options of drivers (or boards with those drivers) with comparison (noise, micro-step options, current limitation, observable bugs and troubleshooting, problems with cooling, etc.) and general suggestions where to use each driver (or not to use at all).
