You need to know why you are asking questions, and communicate it to the user.

If you don't know why you're asking, you probably shouldn't be collecting that info.

Try using these questions (a question protocol) before you start designing: www.gov.uk/service-manu...

Great post on content maintenance - highlights:
- improve or delete? Search volume and traffic thresholds
- fact checking and risk: subject expert content checks every 12 months, if it hits 18 months without a check it's removed
