Comment(by schilly):
Ok, I did most of the changes, also found some other tiny issues. One page
you didn't say anything about is the mirror page. I copied the "usage"
info. see: [http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage/solaris/]
And I understand the confusion, the download is only for binaries, as is
the solaris page. So, my suggestion is to move the solaris source (renamed
to sage-x.y.z-solaris.tar) to the actual source download page and
directory and put a pointer from the solaris binary download page to that
general source page.
This has two reasons: 1. that's how it "works" ;) and 2. we keep a backup
of all sources that were ever released and that solaris source belongs
into that attic, too. [the motivation behind is, that if someone cites a
certain version, at least the source code of his/her algorithms should be
available]
The single wiki page is good good .. then you have full control what to
put there. (instead of solaris-build, you could also name it solaris-
release) ...
However, check the pages and tell me what is left to do.
