hi Ali, sorry for the delay in replying.
we have already discussed the issue of duplication and triplication. We're pretty much on our own here as the wiki-admin team seems to have vanished and the UBT is still re-forming its own groups to assist in educating people who are keen to assist. After a chat with Chris, I'm setting up some pages on a test area where people can get used to using the #divert# tag. That part has been done to a degree, but I have not written any instructions up for using it yet. I assure you that it is still on my list of things to do. What myself and Chris have discussed is that we set up a couple of pages on the wiki-docs area to list all the pages that need to have diverts on, along with a column to state that they have been done. The FAQ section is already starting to get too long and needs further work, that was why I had a table of contents of the 1st page so as we could further section the two current existing sections. We did have, back in old days, 3 sections which were 'Beginners', 'Intermediate' and 'Advanced'. This is something I feel that we need to do again as some of the instructions whilst perfectly well written could really break a system and not be something that we feel new users should attempt until they have learned more about taking backups of critical files (and, more importantly, making a partition for /home for the best fall back should a system require a re-install). The list of things to do is long, progress is being made. regards, Phill.
