Interesting observation,  it made me think about something Emanuele told
me: that Google keeps on linking to pages that should
not be there anymore (their source rst has been moved), but they actually
are still there.

It's easy to find an example:
https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/community/geofence-server/tutorial.html

Check the URL and the version in the page, url says latest, the page says
GeoServer 2.14.x
Emanuele was speculating that maybe the publishing copies over new files,
but is not deleting the old ones,
leaving these ghost pages around.

If we can get rid of them, maybe that would solve/lessen the confusion :-D

Cheers
Andrea
