Question about the best way to ask for help online

I keep seeing people post really vague questions like 'help with my project' without saying what the project even is. It matters because nobody can give good advice without details. I learned this after my post asking for advice on a fence repair got zero replies until I added that it was a 6-foot wooden fence in my backyard. What's the most specific detail you think people should always include?

Learned that the hard way with my own terrible posts.
