[edit] Most commonly used at the time
If I recall correctly the most commonly used wizard at the time was called the Dialup Networking Wizard, not the Internet Connection Wizard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evarlast (talk • contribs) 03:13, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] How Wizards Work
Request - how wizards work. Not the coding behind them, but how they can be used and more indpeth on what common factors are associated with them. Just...more info, y'know? 82.26.23.252 16:55, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- Restructured the opening paragraph to add clarity and remove unverifiable or potentially inaccurate claims
- Re-added the bit about "Wizards" being called "Druids" in OSS, adding more specificity and citing the appropriate section of the API.
- Correct the weasel-inline bit
- Removed the quip about "arbitrary laws", which besides being unreferenced, also doesn't seem to carry any actual content outside being a retort

[edit] Origin of Wizards
I'm quite convinced that wizard user interfaces (recognized by having forward/back next/previous choices) were common in installation of software even before 1991, but I don't have an example or specific case to back this up. Anyone remember a specific installation program?
[edit] Style
I added guidelines for technical writers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew morkel (talk • contribs) 23:07, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
