These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

# Create a poll
|
|
|
|
Zulip natively supports creating and editing lightweight polls.
|
|
|
|
To create a poll, send a message like
|
|
```
|
|
/poll <name of poll>
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```
|
|
/poll <name of poll>
|
|
option 1
|
|
option 2
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the poll is created, you'll be able to edit the name of the poll and
|
|
add options, but you won't be able to edit options once they are created.
|
|
|
|
Note that anyone can add options to any poll, though only the poll creator
|
|
can edit the name.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
`/poll` must come at the beginning of the message. It is not possible to
|
|
send a message that both has a poll and has any other content.
