What Makes This Rhetorical?

A persuasion of values. Deliberative rhetoric in visual depiction. Deliberative discourse is focused on the future, what will happen, choices that can be made for the future. The argument: Material things might change, but relationships will stay the same. Mom, a desk, homework to do while friends call to play outside.

- The Overwrite warning. If you save a page, then use the back button rather than double-clicking to get back to editing, you might get an Overwrite warning in red. That only means the wiki is confused. Select all the text you're editing, copy it, then Cancel the save. After you save, see if the version is complete. It usually is. But if not, double-click to edit the page, select everything, then paste the version you have on the clipboard into the wiki and save.
- Use RecentlyCommented at the top of the page to check on FAQs.
