Been thinking about getting both of those ideas in order inthe near future- except turn it into one big thread with links to threads, stickies and a some FAQs.
It won't be quick, but I think it would be good.

Yeah I'm thinking a FAQ/General Information thread as seen in MD would be helpful. That way we aren't cluttered up to our knees in stickies, and we have a simple thread to direct people to instead of telling them to use the, not always direct and accurate search function. But make it clear that we're tired of all of the cdj 800 vs. cdj 200 threads and whether Pioneer makes better mixers than Allen & Heath. Throw in some of the Ableton/vinyl dying threads into the General Information thread as well as join the stickies into it and try to make it very clear that people check out the general information thread before they post a topic they may even think has been done thrice before.
Congrats on the new moddage btw!

Sounds like a good idea to me.
Basically agreeing with everything Demoted has already said, the general info/FAQ sticky would definately be a step in the right direction. Just a few ideas off the top of my head:
*The monster stickies on headphones/Vinyl Vs. CD/Harmonic Mixing should be put into their own seperate sections
*DJing with Ableton/Laptop DJing -> including how to setup your computer with regards to soundcards/how to use a regular mixer (i.e. non-midi) with a laptop etc.
*Which CDJ is right for you (800 vs 200, Pio vs Denon etc)
*Timecode Vinyl section (Serato, Final Scratch, how it works, advantages over vinyl etc)
*Effects Units (i.e. Do I buy a mixer with effects, or a seperate unit, what are the advantages of each unit and how to they differ)
*Mixers -> Could have quite a few sections here; possibly have one section split into price ranges, i.e. what is recommended for people just starting, then at the other end you have your advantages and disadvantages of the high end mixers like Xone's and Nuo's/Rotary vs Linear/possibly a small glossary explaing terms like logarithmic and linear fader curves etc.
*Beatport licencing issues , seen this one pop up a lot!
I'm sure there's loads more I can think of later.

I'm not to keen on the un-stickied stickies we've had for awhile...

I find it a lot cleaner and it encourages people to do some looking around. I am planning on actively modding this place, so eventually I hope that info thread becomes a real reference for tutorial and info.

People don't do that now, and it was all right infront of their face...
