Is there a way to move these pages
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Import+Data+Using+Apache+POI+api
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER/OFBiz%27s+Data+File+Tools
to be children of this page
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Handling+of+External+data

Sharan,
I am trying to consolidate and normalize all of the various ways to get external data into OFBiz.
There seems to be a lot of information in the wiki.
Some of it may be redundant or old or just not useful.
I am still trying to figure out how these 2 pages relate to the stuff that is still on the Handling+of+External+data page. In the end I want to have the Handling+of+External+data to be an introductory page that introduces the various options and references a child page for each of the alternatives. I have partially straightened out the sections on legacy data (still needs some rewording but at least the 2 alternatives are clearly separated as 2 methods with their own page and moved it to 2 sub pages where it can be fixed and amplified more easily.

The current structure and text is so confusing that I am not sure if the remaining text on the Handling+of+External+data page describes 1 method or 2 different ways to get data loaded. The 2 pages to move have information that looks valuable to handling external data but were created without reference to this the main Handling+of+External+data page and seem to have redundancies between the main page and these potential children.

At the end, I hope to have the whole story about handling external data in one place with an introduction.

I have to start reading code and sample data to verify the information in these pages and to understand what it should say.
