I'm not sure if I understood the proposed two changes, but feel
free to submit a pull request to edit the page if you see fit.

Marek:
And generally, I think normal users (not developers/testers) do not
need to reinstall template ever. Instead - apply standard updates.
I guess we just revisitted this. I guess reinstall has its place.
I am wondering about the following...
At a minimum, you’ll want a ProxyVM (conventionally called sys-whonix)
based on whonix-gw and an AppVM based on whonix-ws that uses sys-whonix
as its NetVM.
Perhaps that should not be done manually. Too error-prone. [ As
discussed in #1955 ] perhaps invoking salt would be better.
sudo qubesctl state.highstate
What do you think?
(Optional) Temporarily change all VMs based on whonix-gw and whonix-ws
to another template
I think this is a bit dangerous. Easily forgotten. And you would not
want some my-whonix-ws AppVM to boot with the temporarily set debian-8
template. Is there a way to set the template to some virtual value
"none"? Or could we have such a feature?
Cheers,
Patrick
If re-installation is the goal, why not use the in-place method from the
template doc? That involves 'qubes-dom0-update template-package' then
after it downloads the package and says there is nothing to update, do a
'yum reinstall template-package'.
