Looks like you should add a section concerning Exotic pets and retraining...

Herbalism/Alchemy. Hunters benefit less from alchemy than most classes
Why is this? Increased flask uptime and added benefits are not the same for all classes? Plus a decent trinket early in gearing and (I assume) a pretty good one when next patch comes out? Am I missing something?

My pet isn't holding aggro...
Turn claw or gore off.
My pet still isn't holding aggro.
There are two potential problems.
1) Your pet needs to be growling (and not cowering.) If growl is turned off, or if all your focus is being drained by other abilities, your pet will not be generating much threat. Taking the talents Go For the Throat and Bestial Discipline can help this problem. Remember that if cower is not on your bar it might be turning on all by itself. Yeah, I know, super annoying.
2) You're simply generating too much hate. Stop spamming your own abilities. There's no reason to be using multishot or stings in solo 90% of the time. Use disengage (or once you hit level 30 use feign death) if you do happen to take aggro, like if you start with an Aimed Shot crit.
Side note: Survival hunters have a MUCH harder time keeping aggro on the pet. There's not much that can be done about this, and it has to do with growl mechanics.

Do we really need the first part? I was just looking through to see if I could eliminate any bulk, and it caught my eye.

I notice one thing missing:
Aspect of the Dragonhawk is not in the list.
Also, Aspect of the Beast gives a 10% melee attack power bonus to hunter and pet. Pretty useless for hunter of course, but it can help your pet hold agro slightly better.

Concussive Barrage (E)
Trash. Complete and utter trash.
Readiness/b] (B)
A great talent for one point, A slight increase in dps, and a great tool for trapping or any emergency where your skills are on CD

BBCode errors for bolding.
Beyond those two I didn't notice anything wrong.
The only thing I might suggest is more than one rating for the talents. Something along the lines of X/Y/Z for Leveling/Raiding/PVP.
I've had a request to sticky this, you ok with that Aethien? If so, it'll be done today.
Not ok, it's just the building thread not an actual FAQ.
I'll be working on it tomorrow to get it finished and then I'll post the definitive new FAQ and you can sticky that :P

There are a bunch of posts with big parts of what might or might not end up in the FAQ posted here and that causes confusion.
And it's not like rate ups do all that much for me...

No problem. Shoot me a PM when you're ready.
A quick update as I said I'd be done by now (which obviously isn't the case).
I've separated the gear and stat stuff from general questions as that was about half of all the general questions, and not so general anymore.
And I need some help, mainly with the basic legwork such as adding in links and fixing spelling/grammatical errors so I can focus on getting it all to take a somewhat more clear shape instead of the chaos it was slowly turning into.
I've been shuffling some stuff around to try and determine what should go where so it makes the most sense to someone new here.
I consider the general questions part done and I'm working on the explanation of hunter skills right now.
And as said, please help with the basic legwork such as adding in links, fixing spelling/grammatical errors etc.
Thanks in advance,
- Æthien.
Edit: I'm also planning on making a HELP ME thread where people can post more specific questions instead of PMing me
I'd like to hear people's opinion on that too.

Feel free to start at the gear section I added in in the last post.
I'm working from top to bottom (petcrap now) so it'll be a while before I reach that and that's where the most work is needed too :P
